Great subs! I got 2 of them for an audio-only system and they sound great. They give the system a lot more bottom end without drawing attention to themselves.

I’ve been building a nice Hi Fi system over the last few years starting with Rotel Pre-Amp/Amp combo, CD player and Sonus Fabre Venere 3.0 loudspeakers (all purchased through Upscale Audio!). Overall, I’m really pleased with my system and love the Sonus Fabers!! Clarity and smoothness I’ve never heard in anything I can afford, but they’re lacking in the bottom end, so I looked into subwoofers. I’m not a big bass guy and actually don’t want booming and thumping. I do appreciate some depth and richness in the low end and so I looked for something to do that without taking on a lot of space. The REL HT/1003 worked. It takes some work to dial in. I’ll continue to play with settings and placements after “run in”, but for now, I’m so happy with the depth and dynamics added to an already great image. I realize that this is a “Home Theatre” component, but it was perfect for the understated role I expected it to play!

First of all, this was another solid deal by Kevin Deal and the boys at Upscale Audio. Second, and most importantly, I love it! I have never been a fan of subwoofers because they always seemed to be boomy and never quite blend with the music or my main speakers. Having heard good things about REL, I thought I would give this one a shot to go with my Totem Kin Play powered monitors. Well, color me impressed!! The HT/1003 blends so well with music and gives a huge kick in the pants to movie soundtracks, and when it needs to, it just gets out of the way. I give my REL and Upscale Audio 5 stars!

A fantastic home-theater oriented sub that brings the boom and does exactly what it says it will!
