I feel certain that which have posted is quite true, mainly that marrying subs to any speaker is quite advantageous. After first getting my Tympani IV-As, I went to my dealer telling him that I'd like to buy some subs for them. Jokingly he replied (more or less) 'what for your IV-As ARE subs'. Of course we know that's untrue, but I took to mean that I had more than enough bass energy in my listening room and didn't need speakers which could provide added, but even lower frequency bass information. Since he was willing to give up on this potential sale of subs, I dropped the matter and never returned to it.
An audio buddy of mine had Tympani III-As plus a very tall sub, all installed and set-up by a prominent audio guru. Playing genres of music which interested us, I couldn't decide if they added very much. Naturally we compared the sound with subs on/off. I recall having to place my palm on the subs to make sure they were indeed playing.
(It comes to me now, said "guru" was Mel Schilling, http://www.xhifi.com/index.php?section=about&subsection=melbio)
