2 REL T-5 subwoofers vs. one Rythmik 12

In a relatively small room 12'x11'x9'ceil. I really believe in the advantages of stereo subwoofers, which with the REL's it would be an easy fit. However the Rythmik would go lower. I am familiar with the REL subs, and these are no slouchs. I have never heard a Rythmik in other hand. Two 8" diameter drivers would be equivalent to 90% of one 12"diameter woofer so the amount of air movement capacity is comparable.
Any comments would be welcome. Thanks.

Hello Manolo - the Rel is a very good sub and if you intend to connect the pair via high level ( speaker) interface, I would choose these over the Rythmic. If, however, you intend to use the low level interface ( RCA) to the sub, the Rythmic is the better performer and you will be more than pleased. I have the F15 in my music only system and got an F12 for the home theater system afterwards, so you can likely tell, I have been very impressed with their performance. Enjoy!

Hi Jwpstayman:

Thanks for your response. Do you have any of these subwoofers implemented using the avr 12db low pass filter with a high pass filter for the main speakers.

I am considering a 80 hz high pass filter for my MM de Capo's and the avr 12db low pass filter for the f12 set at around 80 hz.
