Rel s/510 x 2 vs one Wilson Loke


Seems like a way better deal spec-wise, do people hate money?! 🤣 …I almost pulled the trigger on a Loke, glad I didn’t!! In fact, I bought one s/510 and thinking about a second one 😳

Well, I could make a similar argument for the Rythmik F12SE Signature vs. the REL.  Like the REL it offers high-level inputs but goes to 14Hz (-2dB) vs. 20Hz (-6dB), uses a 12ā€ woofer vs. 10ā€, offers continuously variable phase adjustment vs. a 0/180 degree switch, and is sealed vs. needing a passive radiator.  The one area where it falls short is it has a 375W class A/B amp vs. 500W amp in the REL, but I’ve never heard of a Rythmik sub being underpowered.  Last, it’s about $1300 less than the REL — the beauty of selling direct.  No brainer to me, so the question is do you hate money? 😜

@soix Not quite apples to apples. The Rel aesthetic and paper cone (vs aluminum) are attractive to me as well as the compact size and speed vs a 12. I got mine new for $2k, so the difference is about $700 vs an order of magnitude difference of $7000 for the Loke. Also, my Rel is used exclusively for music. You can always go cheaper, but the white Rel looks amazing next to my black Sabrinas (which I got refurbed and polished for pretty cheap) 🄳 So yeah, I don’t hate money šŸ˜‰

Get the second one! Only problem with white is that you will not be in Death Star regulations! But, yeah you will be over the moon with a second one.
