Description (REL Storm)
This is a great SUBwoofer! It has been the foundation of my high-end audio system for years. It has usable output down to 18 Hz! It is very musical and accurate - not that one-note bass you get with some subs. When I first considered a subwoofer for my full-range system, I looked at all the big brands of the time, but the way that the REL sub-bass systems integrated into the system, providing that stronger foundation that was seamless (plus it didn't intrude on the rest of the sound like those others tended to do) was the clincher. What the Storm does do for the rest of the sound is simply amazing - it snaps imaging into better focus, pulls in more of the recording space so everything sounds more real and "there" - it's like making a significant upgrade to your system.
When deciding between the two "affordable" REL models, the Storm and its smaller sibling, the Strata III, I was able to perform an extended listening session with my system and in my room. I found the Storm to be smoother; it played deeper, with more weight, but didn't sound bloated - I was able to get the sound I wanted at a quarter volume on the Storm panel, as opposed to over half-volume for the Strata III.
Set-up was super-easy: simply put it in a corner, switch the phase for the loudest sound; decide on front or sidewall orientation based on which sounds loudest, then pull diagonally out into your room until the sub lock with your room (typically, up to a couple inches) - again the sound becomes louder and goes deeper. Then set the sub frequency and level to taste. REL provides excellent instructions that detail this procedure.
How does it all sound?
- What Hi-Fi? said that the Storm "...delivers thunderous low-end energy with jaw-dropping agility and control." They awarded the Storm their Best AV Speaker.
- What Video Magazine awarded the Storm as a "Best Buy", and had this to say about the Storm: "This box is brilliant! It reaches frequencies that other boom-boxes leave behind. ... You feel the moon exploding [in Start Trek] rather than simply hear it. Fabulous. ... Overall, this is a phenominal performer. Once heard, the bass produced by this mighty REL Storm is not easily forgotten."
- Home Entertainment Magazine and Home Cinema Choice each awarded the Storm a Best Buy, and British Hi-Fi awarded the REL Storm the Best Subwoofer.
I'm only selling because we've moved and I've got the itch to start from scratch with a completely new room.
This unit comes with original power cord, the 10 meter high-level Neutrik interconnect, Operating Instructions and original color brochure.
I've rated this a 7 out of 10 for age and a few tiny blemishes that are not easily seen, but I'd rather be conservative.
Thanks for looking.
