I will see whats available locally and go have a listen to them. Its difficult to find small compact subwoofers that are good for music and integrate easily.

Last year I brought both models home, JL E110 and REL S3's, as a stereo pair to match with the Aerial Acoustics. The JL's had more connection options and a smarter control panel (accessible from the top, with a hidden panel), whereas the REL's offered their preferred speaker-level connections and a softer filter design (12 vs 24 db/octave). The REL's blended better ('disappeared') in our set-up and that is what I kept.
From the Absolute Sound:
"It may seem like a paradox, but the way to get good sound out of a subwoofer (for music use, at least) is to try to get almost no sound out of the subwoofer at all."
Try to listen at home. You shouldn't be disappointed with either.
