REL Quake Used

Second time around of owning one of these. Both examples bought used. Owners tend to look after them so used is a safe bet. Fantastic for smaller rooms and will play loud. Have had greater success with carpeted rooms and spikes. On solid flooring I found it hard to make it "dissappear". I mean, no matter how I set it up I could tell where the Bass was coming from. I use mine for Music, 2 channel, in a 12Ft x 13 Ft room and in Nerafield position which, I find best. Set the crossover by ear as the graduated scale is not linear e.g. with my floorstanding speakers that, go down to 28Hz the REL is set at 41Hz accodring to the scale. Any lower and there is a "hole" in the lower Bass. In Nearfield positioned next to my listening chair I can feel the Bass. Superb with Blues Bass guitar and super fast with Rock. In or close to a corner it is far too boomy and slow. The Bass is tuneful, fast (being only an 8" driver) and very much felt. Pay around £100 for a good one but some have gone for as little as £50!. connect via the Neutrik cable for best results. With this connection using a switching class T/D amps i had to make up a capcitor filter to overcome a grounding issues. You could always use the LFE input but I don't think it is as good though. Recommended, small and discrete.Read full review
