Not everyone thinks you need a subwoofer with Quads. It probably depends on your amplifier as well as your taste and your room. However there is also a school of though that says that adding a subwoofer to nearly any system can improve midrange clarity as well as add some solidity and clarity to the bass.
I personally have Stax F83 loudspeakers, which can put out some reasonable bass but have a resonance that can detract from the "tunefulness" of the bass. Furthermore because of the speaker's strange impedance curve, it is hard for my OTL amps to drive them properly in the bass region. I supplemented them with a pair of Roger Modjeski's subwoofers (designed for his own ESL's), along with a separate crossover and amplifier. These are small speakers that are quite fast and integrate well with ESL's, and they are not too expensive. I am quite happy with them.
In any case, I highly recommend getting two small subwoofers rather than one large one.
