One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers?


Hello:

Do you think that, for stereo, is better to have a bigger subwoofer or a pair of weaker ones?

For example, should it better to have a pair of Rel Strata III (or the new Strata 5) or a single Stadium III?

Thank you

Size is not the issue. It is the quality of the subwoofer.
Two (stereo) subwoofers is generally better; however two mediocre subwoofers is not better than one excellent one.

Since all REL's perform well, two Strata will work very very well. However, if you think someday you'd like to have two Stadium, then get one now and save up for the second one..

Second part is how good are your main speakers?? If two (or even one) Stadium outclasses your main speakers, then don't waste your money; get the two Strata..
