Why not just tahan for a while without a sub? Save up some money, then get a good sub where you can use and enjoy for many years instead of a sub where you might only use for a few months and get angry at?
The Q Acoustics bookshelfs DOES have some bass, they are not soundbars that sound like tin cans without a sub. So don't have that stigma of a sub is an absolute must have and that you would compromise quality for a low price.
That klipsch sub is mediocre if you want to know the answer.
Well maybe you are right Ben. I might just tahan a bit for the subwoofer while saving money to buy a good quality branded sub. I'm a person who likes to think of resale value. Getting a 5 stars, branded and quality subwoofer would be the best choice for me since I m on tight budget.
As for the Klipsch, I was thinking of it's reasonable price plus it's branded too but not sure if the quality is so so. A user said that the Klipsch R-10SW was a bit boomy. May I know the difference between sealed and ported subwoofer?

Lower range subs wont be able to digs deep and usually it will cause a lot of distortion on some scenes of a movie with low LFE effects. Thus it will also affect the overall sound effects and this based on my experienced on the difference between the lower and higher range subs. You may go for a demo to experienced it yourself and by using the same movie with low LFE effects on both of the subs...
I wouldn't say SVS is the best but it is a good choice to start with... try to look for a used unit if the new ones are too costly.
I have to admit it's true because I owned a JBL SCS 180/230. It sounded like wind instead of bass.

Well due to budget constraint, I have a choice of not getting any subwoofer first or get a second hand at a reasonable price if any. I'll make sure I'll post in here first before making any decision since you guys are very experience Home Theater kaki guys!
