Subwoofers

I'm looking at subwoofers, my speakers are Sonus Faber Olympica III. I have looked at a lot of subs to the point of overloaded. I'm leaning toward REL S812 X 2 due to room size. My living room, kitchen and dining room are open with a 24 foot vaulted ceiling, area is 35 X  25. 

JL Audio, Rythmik, PSA, HSU, to name a few have been checked out. 

HELP!

Why REL?  You'll get a lot more bang for your buck, and great sound with a pair of Rythmik G25HPs.  With REL you're paying at least half the price of the sub for marketing and dealer markup.  With Rythmik (and other internet direct options), there's not all that overhead. 

If you're worried about the durability of the Rythmiks, I have had my F25s for about 8 years now, and am not the original owner.  They are probably at least 10 years old.  Amps and replacement drivers are still available in the event something were to fail.

Maybe it's me but I find Rhythmiks site hard to navigate.

Other than adding new products, I don't think they've updated their website in the many years I've been visiting it, but all the subs are listed on the front page.  Click on one to get the specs.  Not hard.
