Any updates on the setup @dwette ?
Experience with stacked subwoofers?
I have seen a handful of responses to posts mentioning stacked line array subwoofers, like the stackable Rel 510s. Does anyone have a stacked subwoofer array in their system and can speak to their experience? The marketing hype that Rel puts out about this has me intrigued. Their explanation as to why it’s awesome makes sense, but also I want to go beyond the marketing and hear about real experiences before I drop a bunch of dough on something like that.

greetings & kind regards may i please inquire do subs present realistic output wrt classical symphonic music or do they merely pack a pleasurable wallop . according to INTERNET the low frequency output of symphonic instruments do not extend very low . incidentally the dealer who sold me Jadis Orchestra Black recommended a pair of ATOHM RAFALE VR1-X a sub i have seen little mention of . kind regards |
We have stacked pairs running in stereo of REL S812, Carbon Specials, and 212/SX. In each instance space constraints caused us to stack. When properly placed and dialed-in, stacked subs are terrific -- albeit I only have stacking experience with REL. And with REL's direct-to-amp wiring, I won't be using any other manufacturer's subs any time soon. Had other manufactures subs before REL, but there's no context. For not huge $$, Carbon Special has to be one of the best sounding subs out there, at any price point. (Note, I have not heard the Nos. 31 or 32). @emergingsoul Sorry to pile on, but your take on subs is 15 years behind the times. Speakers in our main system are Tannoy Kingdom Royal, which include a 15-inch sub driver. Addition of a pair of Carbon Specials brought new dimension to the entire music spectrum. IMHO, no system, none, is complete without a pair of top quality subs. It's not just about the bass. Its about the entire presentation, from top to bottom.
