New REL T7 / T9 vs. older REL Storm III?

I just got some new speakers and am missing some of the full bodied sound of my previous speakers (Harbeth M-40.1's). I'm allowing myself approx. $1,000 for a REL sub and would like user input on whether I should go with the newer REL T7 or T9, or go with an older Storm versions?

Even though the new "T" series retails for considerably less than the older Storm's, I'm thinking that it's possible that the T series may be a better value given the simpler cabinetry, and maybe there is "flow down" technology on the newer, albeit less expensive T series that make them a better buy than the older, used Storm model.

Any thoughts or first hand experience with both the T series and Storm models would be appreciated.

I had the new REL T-9 and it was a super fast, tight & deep
sub! The best sub I have owned to date. I only sold
it as I upgraded from Emerald Physics CS-3's to the 2.3's and don't need a sub with them. The new RELS are great and look like a million to!

The "new" T series uses class A/B amps as well.
