Rel is a game changer
"I started off with one 1510 predator which smoked my two svs sb4000’s in both quality, speed and low end. I added the second and was blown away by the way music sounded with a ht sub. I have know moved onto the 6 pack, and let me just say, it’s six pack or nothing. Do I have bass yessss, as much as I want. But let me say this, it isn’t the amount of quality bass that I enjoy the most, it’s the amount of micro details, soundstage and imagining that I got. I have heard many say it’s a gimmick, I am the first to say they haven’t heard it set up right. My depth grew my large amounts, my scale is on point and out of this world. Layers are now easily defined, stage is set in proper place with proper height and placement. But let’s talk about bass, it comes in this wave of energy thru my room, a movie scene with a sledge hammer hitting the floor and breaking the ground, feels and sounds like that’s what’s happening. You ever wanna know what it’s like to get hit in a boxing match, well these 6 Rel’s will have you feeling like your in the ring. And gunfight scenes will have you wear body armor watching a movie. Music is hands down perfect, the speed, accuracy and delicate even to produce sounds I just didn’t know where in the recording. I could go on and on about how pleased I am, but my best advice is get yourself 6 of these, and you will not be unhappy at all"

"I own both 1508 and now 1510. Difference is beyond the 200watt specs. . Movies/Music are next level. . Problem with subwoofer hype is how low can you go? Trust me I’ve gone that route. . There’s far more to theater than the lowest freq game REL nails it!"

Astonishing!
"I was considering an Adam Audio Sub15 at nearly twice the price of admission of the HT/1510 when on sale. Instead, I decided to try the HT/1510 Predator because it's sealed as opposed to the Sub15's downward firing bass port. It replaced my Sunfire TSEQ12 which is now serving LFE function on my dedicated two channel system. I'm happy to report the HT/1510 is rather astonishing to say the least in my 7. 1 channel home theatre. It's connected via balanced XLR to the LFE channel and blends seamlessly with my seven Adam Audio active pro audio monitors; a pair of A8X's for front left/right, one A77X for center, and four A7X's for surround/back channels. The HT/1510's bass is palpable, effortless, and musical; it pressurizes my 4,500 cubic foot HT nicely without drawing attention to itself. Very impressive dynamics when called for, with the finest bass definition I've ever heard! Someday I would like to compare the HT/1510 w/ the aforementioned Sub15 side by side. In the meantime, I'm very pleased with the performance so far of Rel's HT/1510 Predator!"

Amazing product
"I have two of these 1510 in my system. These subs compliment my Klipsch Cornwall IV perfectly!! Not boomy and no gimmicky app just dial them in and enjoy pure musical performance! If you didn't see these you would not even know they are there,they blend perfectly!"

This is the thing.
"I hadn't expected a subwoofer to so dramatically enhance my Klipsch Forte and tube amplifier setup, especially since I've had other subwoofers before. But this one completely blew me away. It has given the music a solid foundation and noticeably broadened the soundstage, with an especially impressive effect on quiet music. Rediscovering incredible bass details in electronic albums I've known for 20 years was a revelation. So impressed, I immediately ordered a second subwoofer, although one at just 25% power is already sufficient and very physical. A magic box. P. S. : High-level input via Airship II isn't ideal due to my tube amplifier's limited power. XLR or RCA line-in inputs are the better choice."

Match made in heaven!
"About a year ago,I bought this sub to pair with my Cornwalls at REL’S recommendation. I could not be happier with my decision. If you didn’t see the sub, you wouldn't know its in the room. Once properly broken in and adjusted it blends perfectly! If you’re looking for a sub thats powerful and not boomy, this is for you. Its also impresses with the subtle nuisances in 2 channel stereo and movies. It does NOT compete with my Cornwalls, it compliments them. Zero muddied up midrange. Predator takes over where my Cornwalls left off. Not only will this sub literally shake the room, it does so in a tight, no distortion manner thats pleasing to the ear, rather than sounding harsh or boomy. It is equally impressive at low to mid volume, enhancing my system, not overpowering it. Ive been building my system for 3 years now and the Predator 1510 is the cherry on top, and in my opinion, A great value for a high end system. Also, REL’s customer service is top notch! Amazing product!"

Rel Predator HT/1510
"Replaced my living room Velodyne sub which we loved for many years. This is the second REL product we purchased from Best Buy/Magnolia. It exceeds all previous performance subs - including my music room Def tech towers. I would compare the REL HT/1510 to a great car Aston Martin DB9 - lots of horse power built in and ready deliver on demand! Time to test the car chase in No time to die!!"

"I've had a lot of subs over the years this is by far the best I've had the Rel predator 1510 the bass is clean and tight I've heard and felt things with this sub I've never heard before now I know what I've been missing highly recommend this sub. Started running in at lower volumes and was a bit unsure but after running in for 24 hours playing time wow what a difference amazing so pleased thanks Rel"

This is the one! (or possibly 2)
"After auditioning multiple subwoofers from SVS including the PB16 Ultra, SB4000, SB3000 and Klipsch RP series, here are my thoughts. The REL H/T1510 subwoofer is the best sounding most accurate subwoofer for the money FULL STOP! The Predator isn't just a box that goes boom; it's a ferocious beast that prowls through your living room, ready to pounce on your eardrums. With its sleek matte black finish and an imposing 15-inch driver staring at you like a sci-fi creature, it demands attention. It's a bit like having a miniature black hole in your living room, and it's equally mesmerizing. REL’s 15” sub is like having a personal earthquake generator, but in a good way. However, it's not all about brute force; the Predator has finesse too. It integrates seamlessly with your existing audio setup. You can dial in the perfect blend of bass to match your main speakers, creating a sonic landscape that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. The Predator is not just a subwoofer; it's a full-blown audio experience. It looks cool, sounds even cooler, and it's easy to integrate into your existing setup. If you want to take your home theater or music listening to the next level and turn your living room into a sonic adventure zone, the Predator is the beast you need. Just be prepared to have your neighbors knocking on your door to join the party because this subwoofer is a showstopper. Roar on, Predator, roar on! :t-rex:🔊🎶"

The Predator
"This sub is exceptionally fast and if you need to destroy it, it is simply perfect. I can watch all my favorite movies again because what these subs do is simply unfathomable. Perhaps if an 18" version were to arrive, the home theater audience would be very happy. I have currently bought two, but I am planning to buy two more because it is so good. Highly recommended sub!!!"
