Two small RELs or One Larger Sub

What would you do? 

Dedicated music/listening room -- 16 x 25, with 10 foot ceilings, no openings to other areas.

I'm looking to add air, space, realism.  Ultimate bottom end is not as important as all the other stuff a good musical sub does for full spectrum floor standers. 

I saw that Upscale had the REL S/2 on sale for $1k ea.  I was thinking it might be prudent to go with 2 of these as opposed to going with one REL S/3 or S5. 

Thoughts?

Thanks for the responses!  

It seems two two smaller or mid sized might be a good bet.  I have a small Sumiko sub in another system—I think it’s an REL clone.  It’s so musical.  I’m definitely going to stay in the REL family because I like their philosophy of what a sub is supposed to do. 

Maybe ill I’ll start with one and see how it goes.

@blackspider777,  I bought an REL T9i and it's wonderful.  To even things out, I brought in a Sumiko S5 for the other corner.  All is great!
