REL S510 or S812

Hi

I have 2 x S812s  complimenting my Kef Ref 5 speakers.  My room is 19 x 21 or 400 sqft. The Rels are brilliant choice for 2 channel which is what I use them for 90% of the time but they will do HT as well. As ssid the independent setting is really useful. What you get in 2 channel is really surprising. They add soundstage, presense and air to the  whole listening experience. But for me the addition of 'weight' added to the mid bass on vocals and acoustics is what I reslly liked.

Absolutly no regrets.

Thanks again. I pulled the trigger on the 812 yesterday

@sandrodg73 how has that big sub been working out in your room?

It's working well now. Still tweaking it. I like that LFE and hi level have separate separate gain control.  When I first watched a movie (Tron) the sub bottomed out a few times. At first I didn't know what was happening but a little research and sure enough the sound I was hearing was it bottoming out. Problem was I didnt run my ARC again and my Anthem avr thought it was my smaller rel ht1210 so was probably sending it too much juice.  We ran ARC again and hasn't happened since. I tried pushing it to levels that we would never do and it held up. Im using it along with my ht 1210 and the combo together has plenty of punch for movies. Probably not as much as a big ported sub but more than enough for me. 

As far as music,  it's really nice. It does as advertised.  Sound stage is wider and the highs seem smoother. Not all tracks but alot. Drums also better. 

So my novice opinion is that it's a great combo sub which excels at music
