I would recommend the XLS200 over the 309 if you are looking for a compact subwoofer that has some get-up-and-go with it as the 309 is maybe a little refined and doesnt want to really let rip. This is not a negative point as it retains dignity at all times and doesnt get flustered at any point by anything. The notch filter also really helps with room placement

The Paradigm is very good as a first cheap sub (shame the eltax wasnt there)

If WAF is a factor and all your stuff is Silver then the Kef (if nicely discounted) and you have space (because its oval) would be better than the 309 or xls200.

For the bigger room the 909 would be the only choise. My room is only 3.5*4m'ish so it couldnt really be used in anger. From its results though i really cant recommend it at its price point of £500

I would be fun to get a larger room and pitch a Log rythm against the 909 and maybe the bottom of SVS's range models and to be fair a model by Rel.
