My 2 cent suggestion comes just from my own experience.
I am using a REL B1 sub with Maggies 3.6 and I am very satisfied with it.
Apart from two filter controls which allow coarse and fine control of the filter settings, the particularity of this sub is its High-level connection, using the enclosed cable with the Neutrik Speakon connector. By connecting to the amplifierâ€™s speaker outputs the sonic signature of the entire amplification chain is folded into the signal for the sub, thereby keeping timing and timbre cues consistent. In other words, the signal sent to the REL is exactly the same signal sent to the speakers, allowing for seamless integration. This connection can be made without affecting the performance of the amplifier because the subâ€™s amplifier input impedance is 100,000 ohms. This scheme also avoids adding any detrimental effects by not interposing any additional electronics into the amplification chain.

Furthermore, here at the Asylum many people are vouching for the Swarm 4-sub system. You can do a simple search to find more info on it.
