Hi, John Hunter from REL here. We get this question far too often, so we thought we'd answer it for you. We got the baby of the line, the Tzero MKIII, and the question is, how does this compare up and how do I make that decision between that and the T/5x. Very different pieces, even though they're both relatively compact. So how best to think of these? A Tzero is a phenomenal piece for things like studies, libraries, relatively small rooms.
0:30
And if that's what you've got, fantastic because we've got you taken care of. When you move up to a 5/x you're talking about something that can fill sort of an average suburban living room. Something along the lines of a 14 by 18 foot living room or even larger. Where I live, which is an open floor plan and it seems to fill even that space. I mean, gosh, you must have thick end of 1200 square feet on that floor and it's all communicative and yet it works just fine.
1:00
So, this is a much bigger, more serious piece that fills much larger spaces. It also works with different kinds of speakers. You're really better off with the Tzero pairing that up with relatively small speakers. Why? A six and a half inch, even when designed to really do deep bass will go up and reach better with a small speaker. So there are all kinds of speakers that use four, four and a half inch mid woofers and a tweeter that doesn't go deep enough, really to connect up with something like a 5/x.
1:30
So this one will go literally up, pretty clean nature, to about 55 or 60 Hertz. That's very different than a 5/x, which wants to see a crossover somewhere probably in the 40, 45 Hertz region. And so, strokes for folks, right? You have something designed for smaller rooms designed to really perfectly couple with much smaller speakers that themselves don't go down and produce much of any real bass. And you have a 5/x, which is a really proper state of the art subwoofer designed for smaller and medium-sized spaces.
2:00
In terms of the speakers that would partner with. This piece works well with speakers up to probably the two to $3,000 range. Here, you're probably best left at a thousand dollars and below in terms of having it mate properly. That is a broad assertion, filled with all kinds of gaps. What we don't want people doing is, is buying this because they're looking at a little tiny thumbnail on our website or whatever and imagining the two of these are kind of sort of very similar because thumbnails don't allow you to see the size. So we've made it a point that you can actually see both of them side by side and realize just how much more substantial this piece is.

What an honest video . Most people you can tell they lie. But this one I can see he really want to help people understand.
Great video,, and fully agree. Two REL T-Zero Mk III's for me in my library (hooked up to my amp at line level and with Q Acoustics Concept 20s and stands) makes for great musicality, fills the room without being overbearing, and the small size of the cabinets means they fit neatly behind each speaker stand.
Thank you for your support, and we are glad to hear that you are enjoying the performance of the stereo Tzero Mk.IIIs in your system!
I didn't even watch this yet and I'm gonna "like" it John knows what's up!
This is very good advice as I discovered first hand today. I have the T Zero sub supporting the bottom end of a pair of Dynaudio Emit M 10s ( With port bungs in) in my office desktop system and it integrates really well with them and my room. No shortage of bass at all even down to 35hz.I tried the T5i in its place to see if it might give greater bass taughtness and extension. Despite tweaking the crossover, phase and level settings, I just could not get it to sound right. It made everything sound muddy. It might work better in a different room with a different system of course, but it was a relief to put the T Zero back. Sometimes, more is less.
We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the performance of the Tzero in your system. If you have any questions about your REL then feel free to reach out and we will be happy to assist.
Im also thinking that the tzeros bass will sound tighter and more musical because it s smaller is this right according to your experience? Im thinkinh to buy a pair and pair them with my floor standing speakers
@@MrHellrider9 Often a sub with a bigger drive unit can sound less agile and musical due to the mass of the cone. I have had a similar result with my home system when I tried a BK Electronics 12" sub instead of my 10" one. A sealed sub is a must for music. I recommend you consider a pair of 10" BK Electronics XLS300 subs instead of REL T zeros as your floorstanders will definitely need subs with greater output and extension than the T zeros can deliver.
@@devaplan i will look into that, thanks
Sorry for the late post. I live in Brasilia, where the eletrical network is 220v/60Hz (not 50hz). Would this be a problem if I buy a 220v/50hz Rel piece? Thank you
Thank you for reaching out. If the mains power in your region is 220v/60Hz, then a subwoofer configured to operate at 220v/50Hz will be fine to use.
@@RELAcoustics Thank you
I audienced them both. Don’t underestimate the Tzero…. I was amazed how deep the bass goes 👌🏼👌🏼
Hi John thank you for the video. I have Monitor Audio Silver 100 with Cambridge Audio CXA61 on my desk (computer setup). The silver 100 already has a 8-inch C-CAM RST bass/mid driver and my bed room is medium/small size. Do you think the TZero MKIII would be a good choice? I noticed after a speaker sweep test that I can't hear much below 50 Hz with the SIlver 100 thank you
Thank you for reaching out. The Tzero Mk.III can work well in small-to-medium sized rooms, though for pairing with your Monitor Audio Silver 100s you will notice a significantly improvement by moving up in size to the T/5x. Compared to the Tzero Mk.III, the T/5x is faster and more dynamic in it's output, allowing for a more seamless blend with these speakers.
We hope that this helps, but if anything else comes up then feel free to let us know and we will be happy to assist.
Hi John, my office room is 9ft by 10ft a my speakears are Wharfedale EVO 4.2 What is better fit for me - pair of tZero's or single t/5x ? Thank you very much
Thank you for reaching out. When you have a chance, please write in to contactus@rel.net and our team will be happy to provide a subwoofer pairing recommendation specific to your system.
Just picked up a T/5x yesterday. Got to admit, it so much more musical than my Paradigm 10" which didn't last 3 years. Kicks just as hard, but the low bass is punchy, not boomy, and spatial. Paired up with the Paradigm studio 30's, my system now has a wonderfully pleasant depth to it. Good job Rel. BTW, I utilized my turntable ground for the black wire instead of the negative on the speaker output.
Thank you for sharing, and we are glad to hear that the T/5x is performing well in your system! If anything comes up or if you have any questions then feel free to let us know and we will be happy to assist.
Between T5x and Tzero MKIII, whst should you suggest for Dali Menuet SE. Speakers are 5.5 Feet apart. Listening distance is 7 feet from speaker.
In our experience the T/5x will be a better option for pairing with your Dali Menuet SE speakers, due to it's faster and more responsive output compared to the Tzero.

I'm hoping John Hunter is still monitoring this thread! My question concerns my large open baffle Decware ZF15M clones, which have full-range 15" drivers and roll off around 50Hz. I'm currently using my T0 with them in a 19' x 12' room ( I listen across the short axis towards the right-hand side). It seems to make a worthwhile difference, but I am wondering -- might a larger Rel like the T/5x be significantly better?
Thank you for reaching out, and for choosing a REL subwoofer for your home audio system! When you have a chance, please write in to contactus@rel.net and our support team will be happy to discuss upgrading to a larger subwoofer for your system.
So which is better matched with LRS+? Thanks.
Thank you for reaching out. In most room sizes we recommend the T/5x as being the preferred option for pairing with your Magnepan LRS+ speakers.
I’m looking into the t zero for center channel support. Or should I go for the t5x for greater extension? Thanks!
Thank you for reaching out. While the Tzero is an excellent subwoofer, in our experience the T/5x will be a better option for use as a dedicated center channel subwoofer in a home theater system. If you have any questions about subwoofer selection for your system then feel free to write in to contactus@rel.net and we will be happy to assist.
Hi John......which of these 2 subs would best match a pair of Magnepan LRS speakers in a 11 ft x 14 ft room? Thanks in advance.
Thank you for reaching out. For use in this size of room, a stereo pair of T/5x subwoofers will be an excellent option for pairing with your Magnepan LRS. The T/5x has a fast and responsive output which will blend seamlessly with these speakers, and together will have plenty of output power to properly fill and pressurize this size of room.

@@RELAcoustics Thank you so much for your advice.
Thanks John, This seems really helpful yet has left me a bit confused. I have a pair of Harbeth P3ESR XD speaker placed across a room 4.8 m wide and 6.5 m long (31.2 sq. m or roughly 330 sq. feet). Your website states that I should pair this with a T/7x, yet my Harbeths are -6 dB at 75 hz, so based on your video I thought I should get a T Zero unit to get up to that frequency better? I currently have an ancient original REL Storm I that I use but the base is a bit muddy no matter how I tweak it, and I tend to run it at really low output (9 o'clock), and crossover about 36 hz to avoid boom.
Further to that - I only play 2 channel music, so have no wish for home theatre type bass
Thank you for reaching out. The Tzero Mk.III can perform well with your Harbeth P3ESR XD speakers in a smaller enclosed room, though based on the size of your room we would recommend either a single T/7x or a pair of T/5x as being the best option for pairing with these speakers. Either of these options will have greater output power than the Tzero Mk.III, which will allow for stronger and deeper sub-bass output in your room, while still being fast and responsive enough to blend well with the Harbeth speakers.
Which of these two subwoofers would REL recommend to pair with Harbeth P3ESR XD speakers in a 12' x 20' room (which is actually 30' long if you include past the kitchen bartop and 16' wide where the hall opens up at the end of a dividing wall along which the speakers stand at one end facing down into the long room)? I am trying to strike the perfect balance between lower frequency representation and audio quality without it being too booming or bothersome to my duplex neighbor (the division between our units seems very good with no noise heard between).
Thank you for reaching out. Based on the size of your room, we typically recommend the T/7x subwoofer as being the best option for pairing with your Harbeth P3ESR XD speakers. The T/7x has a fast and responsive output that will blend seamlessly with these speakers, and has plenty of output power for adequately filling and pressurizing this room without it's output becoming boomy or lacking in definition.
@@RELAcoustics Thank you kindly for the response. Love your products! I believe I will pair with the T/7x, then.
This is so helpful. REL UK has recommended the T5x for my Sonus Faber Lumina IIs but I sense that you would opt for the T Zero as my speakers don't go low enough to cross-over nicely with th T5x - am I understanding correctly?? Thanks for the insight
If your system is located in a small room then the Tzero Mk.III can be a good option for pairing with your Sonus Faber Lumina II speakers, though if your system is placed in a medium-to-large room then we do recommend the T/5x as being the best option for pairing with these speakers.
@@RELAcoustics Great, thanks so much for the response, my room is approx 15 x14 ft which probably qualifies for medium in the UK and small in the States - slightly borderline?
oh and the Luminas go to 55 Hz, you mention that the T5x like to cross over lower in the 40s - sorry if my understanding is somewhat lacking!! and thanks for your time guys
@@nonkerdandy991 Thank you for providing this information. Based on the size of your room, the T/5x will be an excellent choice for pairing with your Sonus Faber Lumina II speakers. Even with the Lumina IIs beginning to roll off at 55Hz, the T/5x will still be able to cross over well to blend with these speakers.

What sub(subs) would you recommend to pair with focal sopra no1 in 13×13 ft room?
Which subwoofer would play the cleanest up to 80hz? Thanks
Thank you for reaching out. When you have a chance, please write in to contactus@rel.net and our team will be happy to provide a subwoofer pairing recommendation specific to your system.
What if you're planning to use 2 in a room? I imagine the same advice since the consideration seems to be crossover point, but figured I'd ask anyway.
When setting up two subwoofers in a stereo pair configuration, it is best to use two of the same matching subwoofer model. This helps to ensure that the sonic output of your system is balanced and even from left to right.
Thank you for the video. I contacted REL's support and got advice to have T5X or T7X for my small room, which is 12 sq meters / 130 sq feet. My speakers are ELAC NAVIS ARB-51 (active speakers). Do you think a pair of Tzero MKIII would be most adequate for my situation? Regarding the space, I can place a pair of TZero or 1 T7X in my room.
Two smaller subwoofers will produce more even bass throughout the room, but not extend deep enough to be a good match for your situation. We would recommend the single T/7x.
@@RELAcoustics thanks a lot!
Thinking about the T-Zero to pair with my KEF LSX Desk setup
The Tzero is an excellent choice for pairing with the KEF LSX speakers in a desktop setup. If you have any questions about the Tzero or any of our other subwoofer models, then feel free to reach out and we will be happy to assist.
With something as quick as the atc scm11 in lower mid-bass would you suggest tzero or t5 as a better match? The goal is how to best add a bit extension with adequate speed and low enough crossover to leave the lower mids of the speaker unsmeared. Thanks in advance for your answer
Thank you for asking. The answer depends somewhat on the size of your listening room. for use in a small room, the Tzero Mk.III can work well with these speakers, though in a more moderate-sized room the T/5x will be the better match, due to it's increased amplifier power and larger driver. In a larger listening room, it would be worth considering the T/7x for use in this system.
well . I have a pair of Harbeth C7 in a 17'x10' room . is the Tzero would be good ?
Thank you for reaching out. The Tzero Mk.III can perform well with your Harbeth C7 speakers, though if possible you will notice improved performance and a more seamless blend with these speakers by moving up in size to the T/5x. This is primarily due to the T/5x having greater output power and stronger dynamics, and also being noticeably more responsive and detailed in it's output.
You know, I'm thinking about home theater 7.2 and putting the Tzero pairing with the central and the surround and back surround left and right speakers by the high frequency input. Frontal speakers should pair with the T9x, stereo, with the high frequenci input and the LFi connected to the pre-amplifier.
Speakers Focal Aria 936/ 900CC/ 906 or Dome Flax to S/BS.
@REL Accoustics, am I thinking ok?
The Tzero and T/9x can pair well with your Focal speakers in a REL 3D system, though the optimal subwoofer choices for your system will depend on a few additional variables. When you have a chance, please write in to contactus@rel.net and we will be happy to provide a pairing recommendation specific to your system.
Which one for Sonus Faber Concertino speakers in a 14'x11'x10' ceilinged room? Thanks.......

I'm probably going to pick up a Tzero for my computer set up w/Harbeth P3ESR (classic model) in a very small well dampened room. On your website the recommendation is for the T/7x model for the P3's. But I think the Tzero will be better for me just to pad the bass a little as I'm not needing room shaking bass and will be listening to Classical/Acoustic/Jazz. What do you think?
Cheers,
TS
The T zero is a hifi bargain if you can use the fancy cable as you can tune the upper base to match any smaller speakers. It does two things - relieves the bass/mid cone stress as you don’t need to crank up the volume and with a few tests your ears can tune the combo as an integrated system. my T Zero works fine in a 19 x 12 foot lounge. It is in the opposite corner to where I sit close to my right hand speaker (MA Radius 90 on stands). A great value product.
@@andrewcrossley2448 I bought 2 Tzeros. They work great. I wouldnt want anything larger with the Harbeth P3ESR's. But 1 of them came in mechanically defective..as in... (made in China now). I am getting it fixed soon..because the adjustment knobs bind up and grind..not smooth at all. QC not particularly good on these. PITA for the dealer and me (me driving miles back and forth..and REL has the dealer fix it wiith new part/electronics)..as they refused to send a whole new unit which is what the dealer wanted. Hopefully the dealer doesnt mess up the repair. Good luck on yours.
Update..
Nothing wrong with the unit..you can just pull the caps out and the grinding stops..I didnt know that..someone at REL or the Dealer should have known this..and told me.. and saved a lot of time and trouble. The dealer had some choice words for REL though..as they never replied to his -mails or phone messages..also very slow to ship parts (promised for the next day..and shipped almost 2 weeks later and only w/prodding from dealer rep..) not the greatest service either (never returned my e-mails or tele messages)...or dealer support. Maybe the higher ups at REL need to talk to REL USA about this.

I bought the Tzero MKIII as recomendad for my system by John. WOW. What a massive difference. My system always sounded thin. I just figured i had very transparent speakers. I tried some expensive tweaks. And now i know my old sub “low pass only” was the weak link.
@@orgy7orgy7 We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the performance of your T/zero Mk.III subwoofer! If you have any questions about it then feel free to let us know and we will be happy to assist.
Hi. I'm thinking of getting one of these for my small room. Do I have to turn on and off each time I use it? Or does it go into a standby mode automatically when there's no signal. I've heard that using the standby mode shortens the lifetime....
Thank you for reaching out. T/5x subwoofers sold in North America do not feature a standby circuit, while T/5x subwoofers sold in all other regions do feature a standby circuit. Tzero Mk.III subwoofers feature a standby circuit regardless of region. For units which feature a standby circuit, when selected using the back panel toggle switch the subwoofer will go into standby mode after 30 minutes of no signal reaching it's input filter circuit.
Powering the subwoofer off when not in use or using the standby feature will not shorten the life of the subwoofer, though electronics in general do perform best when left fully powered on at all times, and this is especially the case with amplifiers.
@@RELAcoustics Yes I bought the Tzero. I left the toggle switch on the standby side but the LED indicator is on well after 30 minutes?
@@yonglee5567 Any signal reaching the subwoofer's input filter circuit can cause it to switch out of standby, or prevent it from switching into standby. Does your Tzero correctly switch into standby mode after 30 minutes if it is powered on but with no signal cables (RCA or High Level) being connected to it?
@@RELAcoustics I just tested it and no. The only cable connected to the sub was the power cable and even after hours, the LED was still on. Do I have a defective product?

Hello. My Dali Rubicon 2s have 6 1/2’’ woofers on them, yet their frequency range is 50-26000hz. Which one would you guys recommend, since you say ‘the t5x wants to see crossover 40-45hz region’, disregarding the size of my room?
Oh, and thank you.
Thank you for reaching out. In our experience the T/5x subwoofer will be the best match for pairing with your Dali Rubicon 2 speakers, assuming that they are being used in an average-sized room.
Would a stereo setup(2subs) be better or just 1 sub be enough? Or do i get a bigger sub, say a S510? My main speaker is B&W 706S2 in a 20x30 living room. Thanks in advance.
In most cases, a stereo pair of subwoofers will out-perform a single subwoofer. That being said, you can always start with a single unit, and add the second later on.
For use in this size of room, we recommend the T/9x as being the best option for pairing with your B&W 706 S2 speakers. A stereo pair of T/9x will be ideal, though again you can always start with a single subwoofer if necessary.
For more information about subwoofer pairing for your system, please write in to contactus@rel.net and we will be happy to help.
how would the T/5x pair with the Magnepan LRS +, considering that they start to roll of at about 100hz and the optimal freq crossover on the 5x is below 50hz ?
Thank you for reaching out. While the Crossover on the T/5x in most systems will be set below 50Hz, it is possible to set the Crossover higher and still get exceptional results, and in our experience the T/5x is an excellent choice for pairing with the Magnepan LRS+ speakers assuming that your system is set up in an average-sized room.
@@RELAcoustics thanks for the response
I have a 18”x18” living room space and looking to integrate a single Tx sub with my B&W 803N front speakers (with probably a 35Hz lower end freq spec) . Which Tx model will it be ? For both Hi-Fi and A/V duties. Thanks !

Been wondering which sub will work best with my Vanatoo T1 Encores powered speakers. T1-E has a frequency range of 40Hz to 20kHz. Also the Vanatoo manual states they have their own auto-set crossover point. Wondering if the T5x allows you to turn off or disable the subwoofer crossover since the speaker does it automatically. New to all this so any recommendations will be helpful.
Thank you for reaching out. If your system is placed in a small enclosed room (such as a home office) then we typically recommend the Tzero Mk.III as being the best option for pairing with the Vanatoo Transparent One Encore speakers, though if the system is placed in a larger room then the T/5x would be an excellent choice. With either of these subwoofers, if you want the crossover filter within the Transparent One speakers to completely control the sub's output then it will be best to connect to the REL's .1/LFE input, which completely bypasses the subwoofer's crossover filter circuit. Or, you could connect to the Low Level input on the subwoofer and use it's Crossover dial as a fine-tuning control for achieving a seamless blend with the Transparent One speakers. Either option can work well, and it would be worth trying both to see which sounds best to your ears and in your room.
@@RELAcoustics Super helpful. Decided to go with the T/5x. I think that will scale better and grow with me as I move from my apartment to a home. Thanks 😊
@@juniorazeez702 Great choice, and we hope that you love the performance of the T/5x in your system! If anything else comes up then feel free to let us know and we will be happy to assist.
Really great advice. I was looking at a 5x to replace my T zero with a pair of small MA Radius 90 stand mounted speakers that tail off at about 80hz. They are really great sounding for most music. I think I’d be better with a second T Zero now to improve the upper bass. I understand that using a pair of subs has some sonic advantage too to help increase the stereo stage. My new Marantz N1711 also has two sub outs for AV use. So in theory I get the best of both worlds. I was going to upgrade my front speakers to the new MA Silver 7G and use the bi-wiring option from the Marantz that ups the front speakers to 100w per channel into 8 ohms but that is going to cost another £1150 for potentially a similar experience. However they would be best served with a 5x or 7x based on this video which would end up costing another £650. It would be interesting to hear if a 5x and a T zero can be combined with my Radius 90s to have the best of all worlds - getting the upper base extension then in filling the lower base too. I may do the home trial to see if that works. My wife loves our Radius 90s x 4 on their very elegant stands and is rather reluctant to swap the front pair out for the much bigger (visually) silver 200 v7s.
When using multiple subwoofers in a stereo pair configuration, we strongly recommend that both units be the same matching model. This helps to ensure that the low-frequency performance of your system is balanced and even from left to right. If you plan on keeping the Monitor Audio Radius 90 speakers in this system, then adding a second Tzero to make a stereo pair would be an excellent choice. However, if you plan on upgrading to the new Monitor Audio Silver Series 7G speakers then either the T/5x or the T/7x will likely be the preferred choice due to their faster and more dynamic output.

@@RELAcoustics Thanks very much. I ordered a T Zero Mk 3 this afternoon . Your customer service team rang me within a couple of hours to say it would not be shipped this afternoon which was very nice of them. The lady also answered a couple of questions. This is really excellent service when compared to other businesses these days. I’m looking forward to trying out as a pair, initially with my original 2017 T Zero before potentially ordering a matching Mk 3 and possibly selling on my Mk 1 - it’s still a good unit. My son also has one after he heard mine a couple of years ago.
My wife is very happy we are likely to head down this route rather than a formidable ‘pair of tombstones’ even if they were going to be white (MA silver 200 7G).
If it all works well I’ll look at a good ‘stereo only’ mid range amp to complement the NR1711. One that can then drive the front system of 2 Radius 90s and 2 T Zeros.
An Audiolab 8300, MF 3i or the Marantz 8006 are all options as they have power inputs from the AV’s preamps. Any thoughts on which amp combo is best for classical music?
I have Paradigm Prestige 15B speakers which reportedly go 57Hz to 20kHz.
would hte T/Zero match this speaker better than the T/X5?
Thank you for reaching out. If your system is placed in a small enclosed room then the Tzero Mk.III can pair very well with your Paradigm Prestige 15B speakers, though if your system is in a medium-to-large room then the T/5x will be the preferred option.

Hi , I have just ordered the mk 111 to pair with my roksan attessa streaming amp and klipsh rp600m speakers to go in a small flat , I have never listened to a sub before , have I made the right choice and is connectivity easy enough to do , thanks
Thank you for reaching out. The Tzero Mk.III subwoofer can perform very well with your Klipsch RP-600M speakers in a small listening room. With this amplifier, we recommend connecting the Tzero Mk.III using it's High Level input, and to connect red wire to the right channel positive output terminal, yellow wire to left channel positive, and the black wire to the ground screw located next to the output terminals on the amp's back panel.

@@RELAcoustics Thank you, I'll look in to it, and thank you for your superb products, it's rare these days. Hope we can do business, I'm not ready to upgrade to Naim just yet, and I hope you can be my Naim upgrade halter's.
I am impressed with this little sub , I never wanted pounding bass which it can deliver plenty for my needs , it's just added something different to my sound , more musical with a nice bass enhancement and midd range seems fuller , sweet little thing
Thank you for watching, and we are glad to hear that you are enjoying the performance of your REL! If you have any questions about the sub then feel free to let us know and we will be happy to assist.
@@RELAcoustics Do you think this sub would be perfect for my $1k center channel? Time to go full range. Thanks!
@@P1_M1ND Thank you for reaching out. The T/5x is an excellent choice for use as a dedicated center channel subwoofer, though if you have any questions about implementing this subwoofer in your system then feel free to write in to contactus@rel.net and we will be happy to assist.
@@RELAcoustics Will do. Thank you!
Good comparison ..the TZero is really small.
Like the natural video presentation.
Great video, thanks. Would the T-Zero subs be a good match with my Dali Rubicon LCR speakers? I use two LCRs for sides and two for rears. I am a bit worried about running the LCRs full range as they only go down to 59Hz. Also, would I need to have four T-Zeros on the four surrounds? I have no idea how I would put only one T-Zero with one pair of surrounds. Thank you.
Thank you for reaching out. When you have a chance, please write in to contactus@rel.net with the dimensions (length, width, height) of your room, and the model of main loudspeakers that you are using, and our team will be happy to provide a pairing recommendation specific to your system.
@@RELAcoustics Thank you.
