After my Rel strata 3 conked out on me after years of faithful service, I sold it for almost the price of a song and began looking for a replacement. Tried to decide on getting another REL but I learned that their new stuff is now made in CHINA
Not good. . . Visiting Frank de Witt of Wholesound, I saw this dimunitive sized sub, almost less than 11 in in cubic diameter and claiming to go down to 13hz(skeptical about that) but most important STILL made in UK. . .he he. So after some audition, (Neutrik speakon connectors one of the kickers for buying). . .I saved up some money and bought the MJ acoustics pro 50 mk3 sub the other day. Now this sub I must say is the "King"of budget subwoofers.
It is small, kicks ass, highly musical, faster and tighter bass then the RELS(imho) and easy to integrate. As of now, I think there is still 1 stock left at Wholesound(Ferdie Ludo already shipped his 2 remaining stocks to Frank) So go check it out, this may be the last sub you'll ever want. Of course I won't compare it to Rhytmik, it's like comparing apples to oranges but if you're more into music than HT, not much of a bass head and has a small to moderate sized music room, then this might be the RIGHT sub for you.
Thanks Frank and Loloy and of course to Mykel for introducing me to Wholesound.
