Total Newb needs help choosing a Sub

When it comes to TV's I know enough but audio wise I am clueless but with the help of my brother my system currently consists of...

Sony STRDG910
2x Mission 702e's (Front Speakers)
2x Gale 3060B's (Rear Speakers)
1x Mordaunt Short 304 (Centre Speaker)

As you can see all I am missing now is a sub and I want to make sure that whatever I get does a good job and doesnt let the rest of the system down.

Price wise I am happy to pay upto £150/200 but cant really afford anymore than that.

Please recommend away

Hi Indiana Jones, for that sort of money you are not going to get much choice unless you look at S/H and maybe something like the BK XLS200 might come up, which is by all accounts a very popular sub in this forum.

Have a look at the BK website below and there is also the Gemini or Minotuar which is not in the same league as a XLS200 but do come in under the £200 mark
