REL 212/SE

Hello Folks,

I am looking for your feedback on REL 212/SE sub. I currently own a pair of REL B1's in my HT setup. Due to recent additions in my HT setup, I lost the space for second sub. So I was thinking about selling my B1's and get one powerful sub.

Some of you may say, why not just sell one B1 and keep the other. I have been spoiled with 2 subs and one sub is just not 'enough' in my dedicated room (30'W x 18'D). The B1's are rated 500W each.

I would like to get Gotham g213 but can't afford it. The new sub will be paired with my B&W 800D2's.

Thank you for your time.

I know a fella had the JL audio F212 and rel G1 and he ditched the JL and kept the Rel. Way more refined and I think how the Rel hooks up just can't be beat......

I had 3 JL F113's stacked and they were just ok to be honest.  They bottomed out for home theater and were ok for music but seemed underpowered and didn't play very low.  Maybe my room was the issue also, who knows...

I am getting back into 2 channel audio and purchased Wilson Sasha 2's which are awesome but lack bass along with a Krell FPB 300 amp.  I just ordered a 212 SE after talking to a lot of knowledgable folks in audio.  The sub should be here in a week or 2 and I cannot wait!
