subs for music


I currently have ML Aeons set up in a 10x12 room. The rest of the chain includes a Rogue Stereo 90, Rogue 66 Magnum, CJ EV1 phono, VPI Scoutmaster w/ ring clamp and Benz Micro Glider HO, McIntosh MCD205, and Denon DVD2900. I work in an AV store, and have access to a lot of subs, but they are all set up with HT processors, and none of the speakers we carry are as fast as stats. I have noticed that my system doesn't give me super deep bass (I of course knew that when I built it up, but now think a little more bass might help the sound). Does anyone use a sub for 2 channel music? What would be a good match with the Logans if I were to decide to pick up a sub? How well do subs integrate in 2 channel setups for music?

These may seem like dumb questions, but I had once heard that a sub isn't really a good idea for 2 channel, but now I am wondering if I'm not missing out. I can get a good deal on the Infinity CSW10 right now, and it is one sub I am considering. (Also looking at DefTech SuperCube, and all the Logan subs) But should I only look at Logan subs because of the speed of the stats? I don't want any coherence issues to crop up if I add a sub.

Woofers don't need to be quick...there is nothing quick about 30hz compared to the rest of the freq's. Most subs that don't mate well with small speakers are the falt of the speakers...not the sub. Know this, in order to mate a sub with a speaker with-out good clean output below 60hz requires a sub that can also do bass above the point of which most large subs are designed. This leads us to a point where many subs will falter...or in other words, not fast enough because they can not cover the freq's between the point where the speakers leave-off and where the sub is asked to take over.

Fat Pre?....A pre-amp that is only as good as some-one has lead you to beleave an tubed pre-amp should sound because it's their first tubed pre-amp and they along with you know no better as of yet.

I have an office system in an 11'x 12.5' room.
I've used many different systems, with and without a sub, but never had much luck getting good CLEAN deep bass.
I think it is due to the length of low freq. sound waves,
not having enough room to do their thing.
