Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: REL T5

unless you really can't afford it, get the T9. In my opinion, one 8 inch driver (on the T5) isn't going to do all that much, where with the T9, you're really seeing what it's all about to have a subwoofer. Don't forget, it's a SUBwoofer for 2 channels. It's not supposed to take over the bass altogether, that is what your main speakers are for.

Also, you'll get better results running your main speakers full range, whichever model you get.

If you're going to invest in a unit, though, you'll really be happier with the bigger model in terms of what it's doing for the overall sound.

However, it also depends on how big your room is, what you hope to achieve with the thing, etc., and how much time and effort you want to put into positioning.

And not to muddy the waters, but there's a new S series as well, which is probably costlier than the T series.
