These are so beautiful, perfect audio jewelry. Happy you got to review the whole line and bring it to us. Well done bro!

Loved the vid. I have a pair of the T7X myself and I just love them. So seemless and natural sounding

Def the most underrated KZfaq Audio Channel. Bro, you’re the only guy who gets SPL vs SQL…surprising how few people get this point. As for the subs, I’m all about the Rel t9x’s because of my larger listening space

Just found your channel and you give fantastic advice and insight that most reviewers don’t.

Love this Tx summary format. Great vid

loved your review, as always!! and so nice to see such a knowledgeable reviewer as you accepting you didn't know ALL about the subwoofer/company you were reviewing. that's absolutely refreshing! no ego! just wonderful passionate knowledge and experience you are sharing with all of us! thanks! ...and man, looking into buying a rel soooooon and integrate it withy my Q acoustics concept 40 speakers. awesome!

Best KZfaq channel since you understand spl vs sql

My REL SHO/5 is amazing. I was thing about getting a few of them and run 6 of them lol. Thank you for such honest reviews. You get what you pay for. Thank you Nemo

I love your articulation and education on all things subwoofer. 😊

At the end of the day, I just can’t move away from Rel. My past experience and these reviews tell me everything I need to know why I’m an SQ guy first. Keep up the great work!

As someone who's looking at a REL sub, this video was super helpful and informative! Thanks a ton! Had been looking to go T/9x as a buy once, cry once mindset. Your note of consideration for room size really has me thinking of the T/7x for a better sound.

this one is best video so useful i love how you made it . thanks bro !

Love your video content Nemo. I purchased a REL Predator 1510 in large part due to your review a few months back. Thinking of upgrading my nearfield PC audio setup in a year or so, and therefore considering a pair of TX series. Keep up the awesome work mate.

You're a great down-to-earth speakers lecturer thank you. Sometime in life there are some who wouldn't appreciate what they've gotten as a blessing until someone tells them directly or indirectly. . .and I'm one of those. You're right the sb3k was an over-kill for your room size. Yours and mine are nearly similar ( mine at 10ft x 13ft with 8ft 6inch high). I had the sb1k at 300 watts which was enough but due to greed for more power I've upgraded to sb3k which is an over-killer. Again greed had me wanting to upgrade to sb4k in the same small room but realised would be a sheer waste of money plus it's too big and very heavy and I might not even increase volume for fear of neighbours underneath my wooden floor and additional two neighbours to two sides of my walls. So I did a runner after physically viewing the sb4k at my local hifi store. The spouse acceptancy factor is working against my passion too.

Great review.

My friend, I wanted to let you know I just got the 1003 and use it to add bass to my center channel. Lemme tell you, it was a perfect choice. I have the 1205 as my regular sub, but that 10 incher filled in that area that the center channel doesn't normally cover. It's like REL knows what you need before you do. Also have a T9/i hooked up to my stereo system. Love it! A year ago I didn't have any Rel. Now I own 3. Great reviews. Thank you.

Congrats Buddy! The company is showing your reviews in their distribution emails!! Bravo

Great to see this and confirm my thoughts and findings. I demoed the tx9 amd tx7 in a room maybe 7 x 13m. I listened for over 2 hours. I have a smaller room, 3.5 x 7.2m and i have neighbours below me that i was concerned with. With the tx9 gain set to about 6 clciks , i found to get the same spl from the tx7 it was set to around 12 clicks. I also noticdd that at similat spls, the tx9's dwon firing passive radiator was producing way more output than the 7, althoigh at the listening position, you wouldnt be able to tell this. It was a striking difference when putting your ear up to the sub tho, and this is what made me nervous aboit getting the 9, and annoying my neighbours, and therefore never being able to use the sub properly. I also felt like you Nemo, that an amp or sub should be turned up on the volume dial a half decent amoint in order to really open it up and get the unit working in its sweet spot. So i decided for my smaller room with neighbours to go with the x7. And im.so glad i did!. I have the gain set at 11 clicks and the room gain in the smaller room meant that i noticed much more bass at this level than i did in the larger room, and it seems to go deeper. (I presume the lower frequencies are given a boost by the room). I love this sub! Every piece of music and album sounds better, and almost every piece of music has significantly more information in it than i knew ever existed. Its just a shame i had to wait this long to get my first sub (finances allowed now). I was considering jl audio and Arendal. Im glad i went with the rel. It sounds amazing. I use it for hifi only and is the main reason i have it, although im sure I'll get it put through the tv audio soon. Thanks rel! And thanks Nemo for the vids..... so happy with it.

Absolutely great review

I purchased the original REL Strata sub over 25 years ago and it's still going strong. It was an expensive purchase back then but now I consider it the best value audio buy that I have ever made.

Best REL Sub review as always. Thanks again. You made some good points about the need for right fit for T7x and T9x in different size rooms. I think My Pair of T9x might be too big. My room is 18 wide by 24 deep but I listen from 10-12 feet away. Boy the two T9x really put out a lot bass/SPL. Im at 10 clicks gain per side L/R to make it sound good with music. Movies 15 clicks.

This is probably the only video that i find to be very honest and practical. Looking forward to more of your reviews

I really enjoyed my time with the T7x. The build on it alone is top notch. Awesome Review Nemo!

Love it!

I fretted between tzero and t5x for a long time. Went for a pair of tzeros when they went on sale. During the break-in (100% compulsory) all my concerns about them not being enough were dispelled. I wanted a pair for 2 channel listening but I did not want to disturb my upstairs neighbors. Tzeros integrates well and brought warmth and modest texture to my speakers. It would be interesting to get nemo’s take for sure.

This evening (I live in the Netherlands) I have watched probably 20 videos about subwoofers on your channel that have helped me tremendously. My compliments on your clear explanations and presentation! Let me state up front that I am a real SQ guy, so in terms of brand it will be a Rel. My room is 10 x 18ft by 7.5ft ceiling. My setup is full Audio Note system, so a OTO 2x10w tube-amp paired with AN-J LX hemp high effecienty speakers. Audio Note Dac3.1x/II yes also tubes in here. The amp and speakers are a match made in heaven, but since I removed my couch I have low end problems. The system although its neutral, it’s sounds rich, live and full of emoticon. So every track sounds completely different. (Mostly I associate neutral systems with cold tonality, extreme resolution and analytical which I don’t like. But that’s another story haha. But the disadvantage of high effecienty speakers is the lack of authority in the lows. Previously I was barely satisfied with the low, but since the sofa with footstool has made way for a recliner the bass is gone. Huge dip at 40hz and I played two days again on speaker and the mlp. But they cant fill the room anymore. Did some simple measurements to. I want to benifit from all the audiophile aspects like, increase in soundstage, three dimensionality, dark background. I love warm tonality and texture to. But I think it’s also cool to have sometimes quite some thump when playing louder. Which makes the choice more difficult. So im not sure to go with dual T5X or one T7X? (If you need more background information for a more accurate reply, don't hesitate to ask me)

Got my first rel yesterday (t7x pair) in white after watching this video and being convinced to go with the blind purchase. First piece of audio gear that absolutely exceeded my expectations immediately. Never experienced this before. Usually have a period of doubting a new purchase but these are not in that category. If you don't like these it's possible that... YOU DIED 😉

rel customer here. But one thing that is 100% required is DSP of the low frequencies. I guarantee you that 99% of the people watching this have awful standing waves in their rooms around 50Hz that no matter where they place their sub it will never disappear. Cutting off frequencies from mains can work, but if you just use REW and proper EQ it is absolute game changer. Before DSPing my sub I couldn't hear the lowest freq because of 55Hz 10db peak from my room, now everything sounds balanced and magical. If your source is PC you can even do that for free with APO EQ app. Big up to you. P.S. I have the 1003 I live in appartment and it is sitting few inches away from my butt. I think it is the one to recommend for bang per buck, would love to hear how it is vs speedwoofer and sb1000

The 2 REL subs that I own are the T/Zero MKIII and the HT/1003. The T/Zero is in a desktop system paired with the Emotiva Airmotiv B1+ speakers. I have a crossover box on the output from my DAC. The low pass output goes the Tzero low level input. The high pass goes to the amp, to which the B1+ are connected. I have the crossover set at 65 Hz. Leaving both the speakers and the sub to do what they are really good at. DAC: Topping D90; Cross over: Rolls SX45; Integrated amp: Keces E40. The HT1003 is in my front system connected to Vanatoo Transparent Zero (T0) powered speakers. An active cross over network is engaged when a sub is connected to these speakers. 120Hz (shelved DSP mode) and 80Hz (flat DSP mode) are the x-over options. Mine are set at 80Hz. I also have the limiters disabled; download and read the manual, it's worth the time. The T0 speakers and the HT1003 are an awesome combination and a great value. An external DAC is not needed. I actually recommend not using and external and instead using digital input, optical specifically, for the best results. I also use a Xduoo XQ-50 Pro bluetooth receiver. The bluetooth in the T0 is pretty basic. I can use LDAC protocol with the XQ-50 to receive the signal and convert it to optical to feed the T0. Vanatoo speakers are great value and well reviewed on KZfaq. However I would love to see a review of them on this channel. The active sub crossover is an under rated feature and the other reviewers don't give it the attention it deserves. The speakers are more efficient with the crossover engaged since they don't have drive the low frequencies. It would be great to see a Nemo review testing the crossover with the various subs in the collection. Vanatoo also makes the Transparent One Encore (T1E). T1E has a 5.25" driver vs a 4" driver on the T0. The inputs on the T1E are higher spec'd and include coax (which the T0 does not have). The T1E also has a cherry finish as an option.

TMI? No such thing - until there is. Nice vid!

This is my first time watching your video as I am thinking of a pair of speakers with a sub. I am a headphone user, has a few DACs, Head Amps which can be pre-amps. I am a dummy on speakers Hi Fi setup and was considering the R700 but don’t have the space for it. My room is small at only - 4.25 L x 3.15 W x 2.48 H in meters (13’11” x 10’4” x 8’1”). After deducting space used for bookshelves along both walls and a work desk at the end, the next space is 3.65 L x 2.51 W x 2.48 H in meters or 11’11” L x 8’2” W x 8’1” so I am recommended the R200. All reviews I saw are favorable for this speaker. This pair of speakers will be on my new work desk in my Work Room at home first for music listening purposes, I may add a subwoofer or 2 as I like soundstage, musically clear and warmer sounds. My LG sound bar is not meeting expectations with my TV in the living room so if the R200 can fit the little space I have on each side of my tv and can be placed on the console, that’s when I’d consider making it into a home-theatre-like setup. I will then get the Centre, upward firing Atmos and surround speakers for a Home-Theatre-like setup. I intend to use the Gustard R26 as the DAC. To anyone who can help me, I need your advices for these questions: 1. R200 with 1 or 2 subwoofer? Brand and model please? I was recommended the Rel T7X, T9X and the Rythmix F12 or a pair of L12s. 2. Amplifiers and/or other equipments for the above? 3. Which Centre and surround speakers to get if turning into a Atmos/DTX-S “Home-Theatre” (it’s just or living room, not a dedicated big room for real Home Theatre)? 4. Which amplifier, brand and model should I get if I am doing (1), (2), and (3) above? 5. What other equipments do I need? Too bad I live in a country where I can’t just purchase something and then return because I don’t like it and I can’t find a shop that has the Polk Audio R200 for test.

Nemo, excellent review as always. Thank you! Got an idea. Ask for both the Tzero and HT 1003 at the same time. Use the Tzero as a midbass driver and HT for the last octave. I think the combo might compete with the T9x.

I like how you compare SPL/SQ and different subs for different uses. Now your videos make me realise i am a SQ guy with a multi setup different sets of speakers for theater and music, but with music priority. so i am waiting for the day REL makes a sub with SVS mobile app to easily change presets

These videos are so good. Most reviews are either super boring with no real value, full of Class D level comedy, or completely disingenuous, paid for, and deejayed by snobs. This channel is all killer, no filler.

I have a pair of Kef Q100s (the older style ones with the front facing ports at the bottom). In a room that is approx. 200sq feet. I already get okish bass from the speakers and good mid and top end from them. I put the details into REL's website and it recommended a single t5x. When I went to order them richer sounds here in the UK they suggested sticking to one T5x or two of them or jumping up to the T7x. Difficult to know the right move without having them in your room, so I have ordered one T5x to start with (coming later today) and then if it sounds good I will try and add another (if I can find a space for another). Alternatively if the T5x doesn't make any difference I might return it and get a T7x and then in the distant future when I have saved up then look to get another. Gah its all a bit of a leap :)

My first Rel was a TZero MKIII ($340 shipped, Ebay ). Hooked it up my listening room (14L x 9W x 8H) with a pair of Elac DBR62 and I couldn't believe how a 6.5" woofer can produce such amazing bass. It extended the speaker down more than the already great bass from the DBR. It also sounded effortless. So I got hooked on Rel subs. If a TZero can produce something so amazing and seeing that it's smaller than even one DBR speaker (in height mostly), I jumped on an opportunity to pick up the Rel S/5 for half price for my bday this summer. It was massive and I placed that in my room. Four Tzeros can fit into one S/5. In the room, it sounded maybe a little bit better than the TZero but not by much. Maybe just a tad deeper. It can definitely play way louder but for a balanced sound, the volume was at 2 clicks. I would say TZero is 95% of the bass I needed in my room compared to the S/5. Yea, there is such thing as too much bass for one room. But when I brought the S/5 down to the living room (19' x 16'W x 8'H) and compared it to the TZero there, it was no contest. TZero got destroyed. So now, the S/5 is a theater sub though it was made to do both duties very well. Also just ordered a T7i (ebay of course) and will get to see how that compares to the TZero tomorrow.

Yes review HT-1003👍

I got two stacks of 3 rel predator 1505 subs. Sounds freaking amazing

Yes! More affordable REL!

So after your review of the t/5x I bought one. I wanted one a couple of years ago, but life happens and I had to use my money on other things. Anyway after I bought them I asked Rel what they suggested and they told me it would be a great match. But if I wanted to upgrade I should buy one t/7x instead of two t/5x. Probably because it's a small room but with a really high sloped ceiling (8,5x14x15). So probably because of placing issues. Anyway after this review I started to have doubts. Luckily I could return the t/5x and now I have a t/7x coming to my house. My wallet is crying. But I listened to the t/5x and will know for certain which one I like more. Will give an update when I can compare them. Thank you for all the videos it really helped me to make a informed decision.

I am so looking forward to doing the review of the tenants subwoofer my room is about the same size as yours and I’m almost tempted to go after the T5 but I am very interested in the 10 inch that you are describing in the video your videos are awesome buddy keep up the good work

I am very curious how the budget ht 1003 would compare to this models for stereo systems. I really like how you take into account the differences and most suitable use of all these really good products. That's exactly what we need to see, not just advertisement for products as its seen often.

It's interesting that theoretically, passive radiator designs tend to have more group delay compared to ported enclosures and should therefore sound sloppier. But most reviewers I've seen find PR subs more articulate. I guess it's because PR subs allow for deeper tuning in small enclosures whereas "perfect" ported designs need much bigger boxes than people would be willing to buy. Again, just guessing.

I've heard excellent thing about Rel subs I ended up buying the SVS Ultra 13 sub in gloss black about 10 years ago I found a new one on line not that long ago as l wanted two subs to go with my Maggie's But what l really liked was SVS plate amp upgrade that SVS offered Now l can control everything on my smart phone amp and l mean everything plus 1,500 watts No more going around the back of the sub in the dark trying to change settings I love audio company's that offer an upgrade path! I traded in my Emotiva XMC-1 AV pre amp for the XMC-2 cost? $600! Hugh upgrade!!

I just came across your videos and all really helpful. I wanted to ask your thoughts ... REL T7X or the B&W ASW610 or 608 - Much more for music listening.

Waiting for a Rel ht1003 very very curious and the t-zero. Review. I just purchased a rel R218 and is in FedEx truck

Nemo I just added a (White ) REL T7X subwoofer to blend in with my HECO Aurora 700 Tower speakers. Can you do a video on best practices to break-in your Sub if you are in an apartment. Besides just running it 8 hours for 3 consecutive days at a moderate volume. Thanks I enjoy all your videos!

Nice 👍

Thank you for details review! I’m considering one sub to pair with my kef ls50 wireless 2. My eyes now are on rel t7, svs 1000 pro and kc62 and I’m in to 90% music and 10% to movie. Which one you think will make a good setup? Thank you again!

Hi! Thanks for your review. It is very helpful. For you, in room 22 m2. What model is better for pairing a Kef LS50 Meta, T5x or T7x? I like it buy a pair to improve my system.

Keep up the great job I wanted the T9 but I do more movies.😎👍

Rel are excellent no doubt about it. Regarding the high level connection marketing I think it is due to that every amplifier has speakers level output and not all have preout outputs . I think if every amplifier had low level output on it then REL would have been marketing the LOW level connection. All of those connections are good . Low level is jast as good as high level connection if not better in certain cases. I prefer the low level connection of svs. Two preout outputs on your amp and two RCA cables and your done. simple. efficient. Yet regarding quality - REL are no 1 with SVS.

HT1003 is now $499 at Adorama.

Love your reviews. More excurtion gives more distortion, right? I am struggling to understand how a sub need to breathe. Small subs are sure easier to position correctly!

Hey, thanks for the review, which subwoofer cable (LFE) do you use?

I'm days away from pulling the trigger on dual t7x setup so I was pumped to see you review these. I wish you had an affiliate link but nevertheless I understand your reasons for not doing all of that. I'm going to order from rel store and will be sure to mention you. I've mostly used your personal experience with rel to narrow down my decision. Lastly, Rhythmik needs to get you some fm8 subs. I see they are backordered til November on their site. Maybe that will be something I'll try in the future but I can't go on much longer without hearing a dual rel setup

I'm a sound quality guy, people on AVS are going crazy about the new Monolith 13" and 16" one note boomboxes and I couldn't care less about them. I have my 2 REL Predators on order that I got for $1K each, can't wait to set them up and listen.

I had a T9x for a time, and was underwhelmed personally. I ended up returning it.

How does the high level input work? Do you need a set of “speaker B” outputs on the amp? Or does it have a speaker pass through?

I can shorten it ?? Lol ! I had the same question when I got my t5i's. That info was helpful thanks a lot.lafff

Awesome content. In a 12x15 room would you recommend two t5x or one t7x. Mostly music with some ht. Currently have a set of small Klipsch the fives powered speakers.

Hi Nemo, I currently using a Paradigm PDR-10 paired with a pair of Silverline minuet supremes, would it be worth upgrading to a Rel T/5x?

Do you think I could pair an HT to a T9x? I’m thinking of adding the HT to the second sub channel so it comes on only when the home theatre is on.

Recently discovered you Nemo big fan now great vids. Have you reviewed the monolith 10THX and if so please put a link I’m interested in your thoughts of it up against the svs sb1000pro and rsl speedwoofer 10s. I have the iato vx stack with elac debut 6.2 in an apartment medium size looking for some low end although the 6.2s do a good job. 70 music 30 movie. Thanks in advance I’ve learnt more from your channel than many others. 👍

Hello, can you pls give some guidance, I’m considering a subwoofer for my 2 channel stereo system stock between the SVS SB 3000 and the REL T/7x. My system configuration is Rotel 1572MKII Amp, Triangle Br08 speakers in room size 21x16. Primary use is for music. Which subwoofer would you recommend? Thanks

First of, great videos, so much info and common sense! The only thing i feel is confusing.. roomsizes. What is a ”small/medium/big room”? I mean, 4x6 meters, is that small or medium etc

Which rel better paired with Martin Logan sequel 2. Using for 2 channel and turntable. Thx!!!

Hi Nemo, Excellent reviews. I like the way you describe and compare the products in highlights. I am new to the whole Audio Video scene. I am setting up my very first proper HT and/or Audio system after years of using just a soundbar and its bluetooth connected sub. I have all the speakers and AVR ready. Was looking for finalizing the sub(s) and came across this video. The categorization of SQ vs SPL is what I needed to hear to make my decision. I don't like loud and boomy bass. For movies, I am mostly into drama movies and action flicks once in a while and value the background scores in movies a lot. For music, I listen to alternative rock, electronica, acoustics, recently developed some liking for Jazz. I listen in low to medium volume for long periods at a time, never high volumes except for once in a while hard rock. I prefer to listen full range in medium listening volume than loud thumping bass and piercing treble. Looking for more quality than quantity. Below is what I am going for 7.2.4 HT system Room dimensions - 18 x 26 x 8 (finished basement) AVR - Marantz SR8015 Mains - KEF R3 (L & R) Center - KEF R2C 4 Surrounds - KEF Q350 (2 sides + 2 rears) 4 Atmos - KEF ci160ER in-ceilings No Additional amp(s) at this time. Marantz SR8015 can drive all 11 channels out of the box. I knonw you are more of a 2 channel audio guy, here is where I need your help. 1. I am thinking of going with either a pair of T/7x or a pair of T/9x, leaning more towards T/9x. I think a pair of T/7x should be enough for my room volume, but don't want to miss any details T/9x provides. Thoughts? 2. For now I'll use the same speaker system and AVR for both HT and 2 channel listening with subs. AVR should allow to toggle between HT (7.2.4) and stereo mode with subs (2.2) without actually unplugging and replugging speaker cables every time I need to switch back and forth between the modes (I think this is where the zoning comes into picture). In future, I might add a dedicated 2 channel Audio system. Is it possible to connect the same pair of subs (pair of T/7x or T/9x) to 2 different AV systems - with one using the regular LFE/RCA for the HT AVR and other using High level input to the 2 channel Audio system? 3. What are the black panels behind you on the walls? are they part of the room treatement? could you provide more details please. Thank you very much. - M D

See if you can get your hands on the Sonus Faber sub, it's in the T9 price range. I'm guessing they're pretty good.

Hey! Give me some guidance please :) Im in a 4.4mx4.4 loungeroom open to the side with dining and kitchen to the right. Im running Focal Aria 926 fronts. I listen mostly to movies and another variable I live in a townhouse So I am worried about annoying the neighbours so I cant listen near referance. Do I run a couple t5x's or a T7x or a couple HT1003's? And should I run them Arias as large? Thanks :)) Ps i subbed

Hey Nemo, I'm debating between the T7x vs rythmik F12. My space is 10x14 with 10' distance between front and back wall and I can only fit one sub in the corner. Will be matched to omega cam bookshelf speakers. Which one would you recommend?

Suscribed now 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

I also have the Buchardt s400mk2. In 13x18x8 room. Dermot at Rel suggested the T7x or T9x. He explained to me that while Buchardt claims 33hz the actual is probably 40-45. And the sub would add better base down low. Which combo of rel do you prefer with Buchardt? I’m purely music listening. Oh and I’m working with GIK getting my room acoustic correct.

I have wooden floors, should I put my TX7's on some type of base? Much respect and love from the Uk

How is the T5X/T7X compare with Rhythmic L12 for small room (8x8ft) and music only?

Hi! Great video! I have one question: how do you have connected the high level cable with the banana plugs in your receiver/amp???

Great video !! I'm considering the T7X or T9X. Currently have the Goldenear super XXL sub. Will this be a lateral move or better? Now the question is which one? Room is 15 x 17. Components Sonus Faber Sonetta III L&R, C1 center, 562 rear in wall speaker, Marantz AV 7706 processor and ATI 4005 amp. Your recommendation is? Thanks.

Thanks for your very informative videos. What is your opinion on 2 channel listening for a room size 12x10x7 feet ? One T7x or two T5x ? My speakers are Harbeth M30.2. I prefer more quality sound than amount of base. I don’t play rock.

Hmm… should I get a second Tzero mk3 or a signle T7x? 😅 I pair them with the Ls3/5a and those guys has quite a bump in the 100hz and I find the Tzero bleeding into the mids. I only turn the crossover 2 clicks from the lowest point and this only adds to the sub bass and doesn’t add much to the kick drum punch. I listen to heavy metal from bands like Epica, Dream Theater and SleepToken while my father prefers listening without the sub as he mainly listens to vocals.

really good review! i have an ae1 active. how do i pair it with t7x? is it an active subwoofer or do i need an amplifier?

Just subscribed, great channel!!! I have a room similar in size to yours, I have Anthony Gallo Reference 3.1 speakers. I am torn between a pair of T5x or 1 T7x. Space is tight in the room. Thoughts?

How do a pair of t7x pair with the Buchardt s400 mkii, in your room? Have you tried placing a pair of subwoofers in a near field setup? To the right and left of the listening position, instead of next to the main speakers? I find it amazing. Creates a much greater immersive bass and a lot of the room issues go away as you are near field to the subwoofers.

Hey Nemo, my vinyl collection is strictly 90's hiphop, listening room similar size to yours except 10foot ceilings, its a corner room that intersects 2 hallways and a set of stairs and no doors!- nightmare! Lol - ANYWAY, I'm very much torn between Rels offering of 1205 or t9x. Is the 12" driver on the 1205 going to be better for hiphop? I'm a SQ guy at heart, but still want some definitive bass. Cheers for all the vids mate - excellent work!! 👍

Question, I have B&W 603 S2 Tower's. I would like to buy a subwoofer, was thinking of the T 7x for music and the 1205 for movies. Would that be a good match and also can I use both when watching movies? Or should I stick with B&W subwoofer? Thanks

How do these stack up against the 10s and 12s for tv watching mostly? I like the size of the REL's alot better.

What brand of acoustic treatments do you have there?

Hello, do you see an advantage or benefit of adding the Rel sub to the Buchardts? If yes, Which Rel would you recommend for pairing with the Buchardt's?

I brought the REL Predator. I'm thinking about get the TX 7 as a secondary Sub what you think?

Which one do you think better subwoofer between rel t7x and kef 62c if the price different is only 150$

My room is 10ft x 22ft would the t7x do for my room

Hey Nemo, when I compared the Rythmik L12 to a REL t5i (yeah, I am that guy who cross-shopped based on price), sure, the L12 extended deeper but I picked the L12s because it had that more muscular and fuller sound than the REL t5i , which was fast but lacked weight to the sound. Is that tonal differences? With the introduction of the T/X series, you mentioned (and have heard this elsewhere) that the sound is fuller (especially the t7/9x over the t5x). My other question is, is that more closer to the Rythmik? My room is about 12% smaller than yours, I can't go back to a single sub, and I am definitely a SQ buyer based on your previous definition. I would go with Rythmik F12 but I just discovered it's even larger than my L12s, which I am trying to avoid. Thanks for the help.

Hi Nemo Propaganda....can I rack your brains on which rel to choose? The 5x or the 7x ? My room is small, about 10 feet wide and 12 feet length and I listen mainly to acoustic music but also rock. Would the 7x be an overkill? Would the 5x not be enough? I would prefer to get one sub not a dual. And my main speakers are a pair of Magnepan LRS's.Thanks mate.

Final help 😊 REL T7x or JL D110 for music? I will end game things here, thank you for your time and help!!! Best

Spot on with your comparison of T7x vs T9x, because it’s the same with the T7i vs T9i. Just wondering if you think it’s worth upgrading from the T7i to the T7x? I’m thinking it can’t be that much better, but please feel free to surprise me! I was also considering the T5i at the time of purchase, but I’m so glad I went with the T7i as it’s more ‘musical’ and more than enough for movies (it can shake my windows).

Have you ever thought about using DSP? I know u like to just use ur ears .. I am the same. Buy can't help but wonder what a mini dsp would do for me. I just dont know what the hell I'm doing...well,, based on what I've seen as tutorials on youtube, it's all overwhelming. I think ur the only person that could make a video on how to use it that I would understand. I'm sure im not alone. Think about it :)

I need help on why I need 2 subs vs 1 sub, my current sub is a Def tech supercube 4000, now they dont sell them anymore. Now Im thinking of a rel t7x 1) will it be bad to mix subs, 2) why 2 ? Thxs for help. Room specs 10ft cealings, about 20ft x 24ft z shaped room. My avr is Yamaha aventage 3050, bi amped 250watts feed 2 fronts klipsch rp 280s eq all low end to sub fronts only play high n mids.

Please review both S510 and HT/1003 and ELAC SUB 2070 :)

What setting did you use for T9x with you S400 MKII?

REL has a detailed KZfaq video about subwoofer break in. What is your opinion or process for sub woofer break in?

Nemo, let me ask you this, you have played with the REL and the SVS SB3000... Frequencies are frequencies, a sub is a speaker, HT or Music, we are dealing with the same thing, identical frequencies. I have two of the SB3000 subs with the Ultra bookshelf speakers. My system is a mess right now and I need to attend to it. Would a pair of REL T5X sound better than, or darn close, to a dialed in pair of SB3000 subs? I can afford the RELs, but space is at a premium... I could fit the smaller RELs in, just wondering if it is even worth it seeing as I already have a much acclaimed sub. Your thoughts having heard both? And granted, rooms, space, materials in the room, etc, I totally understand that aspect to any sound either would or can produce. Thanks for your time.
