New R Series Rel Subs

Hey Y'all,

I find the info on the Sumiko website for these subs a bit suspect. How low do these subs go? I just purchased two MJ Acoustic Reference 150 Mk IIs and they are incredible. I replaced the Rel Strata III subs I've had in my system for over 3 years. When I went shopping for new subs, I was looking for something that was going to go under 20 Hz. I've recently upgraded to full range speakers that go to 20 Hz. All of the MJ subs go to at least 13 Hz. I have the sub's crossover set at 20 Hz for music, via the high level input, and I get low frequency info from my system, with these subs, that I"ve never gotten before with the Rel Strata's. Until I can see what the low end cut off is for the Rel R series, I would not trust them to offer THAT kind of LFE performance. I highly recommend you take a listen to the MJ subs, they really perform.......John

Hey Y'all,

I've heard it in my system. Clean and clear, there is LFE coming from the subs below 20 HZ. I don't know if I feel, because of course you can't hear down to 13 HZ, the LFE down to 13 Hz. In fact there might not be any LFE down to 13 Hz in any of the music I listen to. But there is in the movies and let me tell you, I've never before felt the impact that these subs present from any other sub I've own and I've owned several pairs including Rel, Velodyne and B&W. Hey, enough of me babbling. Go to the MJ Acoustic wed site and read it for yourself. Or better yet, seek out a dealer to hear and feel it for yourself. I have no affiliation with MJ at all. I'm just a happy customer, trying to spread the word on these fantastic subs.......John
