Good Subwoofer recommendations

I'm looking for a good Sub for my existing HT system.

There are so many types like Sealed, Ported, Cylinder, Bass-reflex, etc. & it's a bit confusing to determine which one will be better. Also, does type of speakers or Amps I have can impact the decision?

My budget is around $1000 & I prefer getting a used or refurbished rather than new.

Current setup:
LRC Speakers: Tyler Acoustics Linbrook System II
Surround Speakers: JBL S312
Amplifier: Parasound Halo A51
BD Player (cum PreAmp): Oppo BDP-105
Room: 16x18+ with ~40% open walls, so sound can bleed

Thank you in advance!

Thanks for all your suggestions. I ended up buying my friend's 10 years old SVS 20-39PC Plus.

It's not as high-end & versatile as some of the models suggested here but it does the job fairly well at a fraction of the cost ($250). It's 40" tall & has custom-built 12-inch woofer with a 525 watt power amplifier.

Except of it's physical appearance, during playback you'll hardly notice it is even there while still providing fuller & richer sound.

Thank you once again!
