Velodyne dd series 10 or 12 v. Rel Strata III

Has anybody compared these two subs? How musical are each? How fast compared to each other. They would be for use in a two channel system with BV Audio A300s, arcam 23T cd player and totem forests (although forests may be changed out). Room is fairly large 24x16 with marble floors and 23 ft ceilings.

Thanks.

Thanks to all for the info. Has anybody heard the Totem Thunder?

I am a longtime fan of REL and I like them so much that I sold my system but kept the Storm III. However, what other posters say about the DD series is true, they are so wonderful that unless you have no problems with room-induced resonances Velodyne is the sub to buy.

Vladmir - can you explain room-induced resonances and why the rel might be better than the velo if that is a problem.

Thanks.

The features of the DD series are amazing.
Download the manual from Velo's site and read up on all it will do for you, and just how tune-able & versatile they are.

I have been saying this for quite some time. The DD-15 in my basement has made such an improvement in my 2-channel listening I can't quite explain. Full range 2-channel that is seemless. Every now and then I hit the mute on the sub. just to see if I really miss it. This sub. ROCKS. I cannot get into the music if I don;t have the sub. on.
