I came to the same conclusion a couple of years ago as well; I do not
see the point in hooking up a sub that, as I recall from posts in this
newsgroup, measures 28% distortion at low frequencies (or was it high
SPLs?).  I did then try a pair of Entec LF2-20's and the sound was
glorious, but I could not really keep them because of lack of room, but I
was curious as to what I was missing... if I were ever to hook up subs
with the SL3s I would certainly audition them with REL and other subs
as well, but it's fairly difficult to go wrong with an Entec.
