What is the order of rel subs?


I am confused in what order do the rels follow?
Does each model present different amp power and different size driver? Or are there other differences as in equalization and crossovers and microphone for set up? How is the storm different from the strata and stadium and stampede and stentor? I am looking for something that will be musical and light what I mean is not noticeable and I would like it to go low and to fill the room. Do I stick with these models or should I consider the new b series. thanks

Go to Sumiko web site for infomation on the Britannia Series and get a B3.

Yes, there is a pecking order. The "ST" series is no longer available in the U.S. new except for the highest end models (Studio at $9,000 and Stentor at $5,000). The Britannia series is next (B1 at $3,000, B2 at $2500, and B3 at $2,000 with some variation for finish). Check out the Sumiko website referenced above for more details. I am most familiar with the "B" series as I own the B1 (12" driver and 500 watt amp) as compared with the B2 with a 10" driver and a 300 watt amp and the B3 with a 10" driver and a 200 watt amp). However, size of driver is not everything as the Stentor is only a single 10" but has a huge enclosure and the Studio is dual 10" drivers with a huge enclosure as well. The B and R series are the newest in the line with the R series made in China and the B series made in England. The older "ST" series subs were all downward firing and downward ported whereas the new B series is forward firing but downward ported.
Here is the order from the rel website:
Stampede
strata III
strata 5
storm 5
stadium III
stentor III
studio III
