2 REL T-5 subwoofers vs. one Rythmik 12

In a relatively small room 12'x11'x9'ceil. I really believe in the advantages of stereo subwoofers, which with the REL's it would be an easy fit. However the Rythmik would go lower. I am familiar with the REL subs, and these are no slouchs. I have never heard a Rythmik in other hand. Two 8" diameter drivers would be equivalent to 90% of one 12"diameter woofer so the amount of air movement capacity is comparable.
Any comments would be welcome. Thanks.

I think, that two subs are inherently better, than a single one, for many reasons:
Bass is directional, despite a popular opinion, than it isn't
Two subs will give you smoother in-room frequency response
Two are easier to position, to alleviate room- related modal issues.
When I was about to add subs to my own system, I have done some research and spoke with quite a few experts, and that's what everyone of them said.
