Which subwoofer should I get?

REL is the OPPO of the HiFi world, over-hyped because magazines like The Absolute Sound said it was great but many cheaper alternatives do better.

I'll vote for SVS if you want to save a few bucks and like the app.

I'll also throw in the Paradigm XR13 which adds room correction, sound fantastic with music and has a better aesthetic value (comes in a few finishes if that's important)

For your speakers I would recommend avoiding subwoofers and letting them run as they are.

They have 3 x 9 inch woofers and response down to 25Hz driven by a robust powerful amplifier. Unless you want to high pass filter your main speakers (not recommended) the subwoofers will contribute little additional content. Be aware that subwoofer integrations are a compromise and will introduce cancellation and dynamic issues that critical music listeners can detect.  

the elac subwoofers are fantastic fast deep bass and an incredible app

the ds 1200 at 3k is a killer sub for the money

I have listened for many months to my system without a sub, and was able to listen to the system with the SVS home theater (ported bass) sub for about a month. There is no question that the subwoofer added a tangible sense of air and space to the experience. While I love my speakers (!!), I do think that adding a sub will be a positive add.

I also would be happy with two SVS SB-2000. I prefer sealed subs for music. Less bloat not using a port, tighter sound. Balance them left and right in stereo.
