Hello! Yesterday I received the new gear for my bedroom which is about 16 m2. I feel like I miss something in the bass region so I would like to add some small sealed sub to my setup but there are limitations where I can place it. I have to options really:
1. Put under the desk very close to one of the sides and back wall so essentially it would be in the corner.
2. Put in another corner of the opposite wall using wireless adapter but it will be squeezed between two walls and a bedside table however allowing for a larger like 10 inch sub
For location (1) I considered buying REL T5X as it is already on the edge of being too big in size, anything bigger will not fit.
Can you give me advice on what subs should I consider?

I bought today the KEF LS50 Meta speakers and I have the NAD M10 V3 and the SVS PB-1000Pro subwoofer using the High Pass filter set on 80Hz.
The SVS sub's have a app for all your settings so you do not crawl under your desk for every time. :)

The KEF's sound so much better then my other speakers for nearfield.
Here you can see my sub placement under my desk but you need to pull it 10" from the wall for the best sound.
And yeah every room sounds different. ( isolation, material, size, ...)

There is also a micro sub from SVS for smaller rooms.

 
Unfortunately this sub has side facing drivers so at any position at least one its drivers would face immediate hard surface that is not good I think.

The SVS SB-1000 Pro does not fit under your desk?
