REL Quake or ACI Force for semi small room


Rega Planet, P3, Mira (old clamshell style)
Ruark Prelude R's (gorgeous speaker and midrange)
QED Silver Ann / Quect 3's

Looking for a musical sub to fill out bottom end in a semi-small room with hardwoods. Owned a Strata III and Rega Vulcan and loved both. I'm torn between REL Quake (smaller, british synergy, 23hz-6db) and ACI Force (return policy, more air movement from 10in driver, 20hz-3bd). Both are around $750.

Any suggestions? I know, both will work beautifully but maybe someone has some other insight.

Thanks,

Neither, Velodyne DD10. But if you must have one of those, the ACI definitley.

Is it raining?

I agree; I love RELs and ACIs are good too, but the room correction of the Velodyne DDs is too good to pass.

Thanks, the DD technology sounds interesting but I'm priced out.

Anybody heard an Essex SW-1? Essex is the OEM from REL, Ruark, and Rega subs. www.essex-audio.co.uk
