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 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.

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

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.
