    Very happy to see RSL back in business! I had a close friend way back in highschool (early 80's) who owned a pair of their large cabinet speakers. He just loved their speakers! In fact, the RSL store in Torrance (where I grew up) stood for quite a while! Wow this sure brings back memories.

    I’m really surprised these aren’t more popular. I bought two of them about 8 months ago and I’m floored by how good they are. I’m a 2 channel guy. I’ve ran them stereo at speaker level like REL or Paul from PS audio suggests and I’ve also used them with a DSP to try and smooth out the response. To be quite honest, they’ve always sounded clean and punchy regardless of my situation in what could arguably be too big of room. I’m sure there’s others I’d like better, but I doubt they’d be anywhere near the price point. As a side, before purchasing, I had some email correspondence with Joe Rogers..... incredibly friendly and helpful, that’s huge for me.

    Anybody have a sub-woofer that produces a low frequency quiet hum?. It is not the sub-woofer itself (I don't think). I can leave it plugged in and powered on and there will be NO HUM if I disconnect the inter-connect cables that are plugged from my sub to my AMP. Can the AMP itself cause a ground loop? I heard a "Isolation Transformer/Ground Loop Hum Eliminator" might help? Any suggestions? I like to listen to Jazz a lot and that music can be dynamic. Even though the hum is not very loud - During quiet passages in Jazz the noise can be very noticeable. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    This may seem like an odd choice stop, but trying to decide between a single SVS PB1000 or possibly doing two Speedwoofers. A second PB would just not go in the space I have an the RSL looks a little more compact. Using almost exclusively for home theater, so that is where I wonder on the PB.

    • @TwoGuyzTech
      @TwoGuyzTech  3 года назад

      Thanks for watching! We always recommend going with two subwoofers - and we especially think that in your scenario, two Speedwoofers would be a great fit. Unfortunately we can't speak for the performance of the PB-1000 since we haven't reviewed one yet, but for the price, we don't think you could go wrong with two of these!

    • @JPWinters
      @JPWinters 3 года назад

      I've heard both. I would choose 2 Speedwoofers, no question. Yes the PB1000 does hit deeper. But flabbier & less articulate. And 2 subs really does even out the nulls in the room, for an overall much better experience.

    Thoughts on the RSL vs omnipresent PB-1000? The SVS goes a little deeper, but perhaps the RSL is more linear? Trying to decide between the two, and might be able to swallow the jump to 2 speed woofers.

    • @TwoGuyzTech
      @TwoGuyzTech  3 года назад

      Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we haven't been able to review the PB-1000. Even if it is a bit of a hassle, we would actually recommend buying one of each and taking advantage of their in-home trial periods so you can compare them side-by-side in your room. Right now we're reviewing the SB-1000, and in our living room, which is 20ft x 15ft with 10ft ceilings, it doesn't have as much output as the Speedwoofer 10S, but we feel that it has a much tighter and more responsive sound that we like a little better. Of course, the SVS options are going to be a little more expensive.

    I am really on the fence right now between this sub and the HSU Research VTF2-MK5 as I feel that both of them are arguably the best bang for buck in their respective price points. On the one hand the RSL wins on price point and compact footprint BUT HSU wins on the frequency range, flexibility of capabilities (ie VTF) and by all accounts in overall capabilities. So just curious if you feel that the HSU is worth the extra $217 (shipping fee included) over this RSL Speedwoofer 10s? For the record I do have a very large room (ie 31 feet x 18 feet with 11 foot high vaulted ceilings) and I will have to settle for just one sub at this point (I simply don't even have the budget for dual RSLs at this point).

    • @TwoGuyzTech
      @TwoGuyzTech  3 года назад

      Thanks for watching! Unfortunately, we haven't had a chance to listen to any HSU subwoofer - but judging by the specs & what we've seen on the internet about the VTF2-MK5, it'd probably have more output. The RSL Speedwoofer is an amazing sub for the money - but in the end, we recommend that you get your hands on both if you can. RSL offers an in-home trial period, but it doesn't look like HSU offers a similar program so you might have to go through a retailer to try them both yourself. Hope this helps!

    • @shay1116
      @shay1116 3 года назад

      Both are great subs and I was in your predicament 6 months ago. Remember even though they are both powered by 350 watt amps the VTF2-MK5 has a 12" driver. Also on the VTF2-MK5 you can run it with both ports open, one plugged, or both plugged. On the other hand the RSL Speedwoofer takes up less room and is a bit more flexible when it comes to placement especially if you use the wireless transmitter.

    your review corresponds to measurements, refer to measurements here:

    the measurements explain it all. Some audiophiles prefer this kind of speaker voicing. AS you can see horses for courses and all personal tastes.
