Customer Ratings & Reviews

My first exposure to Rel was quite some time ago when I heard their Britannia line and was very impressed; very musical as everyone knows about Rel! But around the same time I was very much into the HT thing and had been fortunate to acquire Sunfire’s very first True Sub. Not long afterwards, I upgraded to the Signature model; it has served me very well for a very long time. Fast forward to today; I had never really forgotten the musicality of the aforementioned Rel Britannia. I decided it was time to revisit Rel. The HT/1510 is a fantastic upgrade replacing an already formidable Sunfire TSEQ12 no longer in production, at least the Bob Carver US version. Coming from the TSEQ12, I had extremely high expectations for this Predator! I’m happy to report all of my bass requirements in terms of slam, definition, palpable dynamics and purely musical elements and more exist in this beast of a subwoofer! Prior to acquiring the HT/1510, I had considered Adam Audio Sub15 at nearly fifty percent more and only because my HT consists of all Adam Audio pro-audio active monitors. I’ve since decided not to pursue the Sub15 due in large part to how the Predator performs; very seamless integration with my entire system. Not only is the bass so much better than ever, but the entire frequency spectrum of midrange and high frequencies has improved dramatically with a soundstage that just feels so right and natural, not to mention very deep and wide. My HT has never sounded better and rivals anything I’ve yet seen or heard to date. All this and the Predator hasn’t even been completely broken in; it just keeps getting better every day. I had even considered acquiring two HT/1510’s but after configuring one properly and hearing it perform so well, I don’t even feel the need for two. Although it would be awesome to have a pair!

I was looking to upgrade, even though I have some pretty good subs already in my Home theater. Two SVS 3000’s. For now, I unhooked one of the SVS subs. I made the new REL my main stage sub. I gave a little time before making this review. First things first it’s a beautiful piece of audio equipment. It’s different than the SVS subs in that it’s more precise. Last night I watched the movie Extraction 2. Not only does this help the soundtrack of the movies you’re watching. Gun shots, explosions, helicopters, vehicles, driving by all sound more real with this as my main stage sub. I was wanting to try the JL audio or Bowers and Wilkens. I think my search is over right here.

I’ve owned pretty much every high end subwoofer brand one could purchase from SVS, Klipsch, Velodyne, Bowers & Wilkins etc. I’ve had this subwoofer for a few weeks and seems to get better quality with each movie or album I play on this subwoofer. This subwoofer for a 15’ inch woofer has shockingly precise quick responsive low bass that fills my living room with loud quality bass! The cabinet on this subwoofer is high quality for a 2k subwoofer for sure! I’m going to purchase another one of these soon to place on the other side of my entertainment system for even more room filling bass, eventually I’m going to stack them 3 high on each side!!!

This is my first time upgrading my subwoofer from an 8" Aperion 8D to a REL 1510. All I can say is "WOW". Without a doubt, I am impressed with the 1510. 1510 is an impressive capacity for tactile response and outright slam. I would highly recommend this subwoofer to anyone who is thinking about buying a new subwoofer. The only negative that I have with this subwoofer is the price compared to other competitors. I took advantage of the sale that REL provided on the HT lineup.

This is the 2nd 1510 in my system. Currently hooked up stereo via Rel's Airship ll providing a high level connection from my Evoke 50's. The 1510's excel at HT but are also superbly musical. Very fast, capable of subtle and room shaking bass. When these are on sale, they are a no brainer purchase if in within your budget.

Breathtaking, I have not heard a sound this good from a sub in a long time. I am definitely going to recommend this to my friends

absolutely awesome! I tried to listen to them in store but their setup was trash and didn't fully showcase what they could do. I was looking for something to hit lower than my existing t9's and they definitely do! I can't wait to dial them in and perfect them. A word of caution though. They are extremely heavy. So make sure you have a second person or a furniture dolly to help you move them

Absolutely love the bass experience with this sub. It has elevated the entire music and home theater experience! Deep and blissful bass!! And it looks like a beautiful piece of furniture….very pretty!!

Amazing sound.. shakes floor with full clarity even at high volume!

I acknowledge that my sole regret lies in not having made the purchase earlier. Predator for the LFE and T9x for the center channel. An unparalleled addition to enhance your home theater setup. Believe me, there's a multitude of movies you'll find yourself revisiting.

This subwoofer really fills the room with low base. Helps the movie watching to be a very clean and powerful chest shaking movies. It is a little expensive, but it's worth it.

This subwoofer offers deep bass and will shake the house if turned up. Very heavy and may require a second person to carry in and set up. Simple set up and clean looks. May want to check size of the room its going in before purchase due to size of this sub.

This thing is crazy. It rattles the entire house. Worth every penny.

Superb subwoofer ! Super fast response, not at all boomy which is what you want . If you want boom instead of precision this is not the sub for you.

I like the sound of the subwoofer it sounds very professional…
