Anyone gone from a single REL sub to stereo subs?


I have a 17.5' X 14' X 8' room and was thinking very seriously of going from a single REL Stentor III [which I love] to a stereo pair for better imaging and pressurizing of my room. Has anyone done this and what was your opinion of the change? Improvements? Negatives? (other than cost)? Problems with placement or integration? Although I'd like to hear from REL owners who have done so, any information from other sub owners who went to stereo subs will also be greatly appreciated.

I highly recommend going with stereo subs. My experience are with the REL Stadium IIIs. I started with a single and added the second sub within 2 months. As best as I can describe it, the sound of the system "relaxed" with the added sub. It's a subtle difference, but one that I find well worth the expense. Integrating the second sub wasn't twice as hard as a single sub, but it's at least 1.5x.

My room is 31' by 14.5' and the main speakers are M-L Odyessey.
