    Have you upgraded the crossovers in your SDAs yet? If not, start there for much improved bass performance. If that isn't sufficient then look at adding a sub. A single sub from SVS, Hsu, etc. will be far superior to dual Cerwin Vegas. Like @nooshinjohn mentioned, the goal is for the subs to politely blend with the SDAs but they should not be drawing your attention away from the music. With my SDAs fully modded and much credit to the Pass Labs pre, I rarely desire to have the subs on when listening to music.

    Who is this pointed to?

    I commented on my two CV's in a home theater and how they were nothing compared to the brands you also mentioned.

    Yes My SDA2.3TL's are up to date on all XO and Inductor's ;)
    waiting to do binding post and all new wiring when funds come around.

    My question was for the OP. Wondering why he needs subs and if he's done the upgrades first before adding them.
