    I have boston acustics soundware 5.1 speakers and I think my sub is on the way out. Phantom thumping, general buzzing at times etc.

    My system is fairly old at this point and I could probably do with a new system if I'm honest but I don't want to invest in a new system right now. So I'm just looking for a recommendation for a replacement sub to keep me going.

    I don't mind spending a reasonable amount as long as it can be used in my next system and go with a x.2 setup.

    Hey TazzzZ.

    I like the REL T Zero and it has the white option which the boss has said is a must. Dimensions are important as I cant exceed 300mm width to fit where I have my current one. 

    Just one other technical question... going forward when I do decide to upgrade my full system, is this something that will integrate with any speaker setup? I'm no expert on these things but I am aware with speakers that if you mix companies you can get very different sounds from them. Just want to make sure this wont be out of place so to speak. 

    Also is that 399 delivered????? ;)

    Hey TazzzZ.

    Most subwoofers will integrate with a new system in the future.
    Many of our customer mis and match they speakers and subwoofer to get what suits them better.
    Rel make great subwoofers and I've seen them integrated with all sorts of setups.

    The Rel is only 219mm so will fit your current space.

    All the Euro pricing include delivery :)

    Hey TazzzZ.

    I think you posted up on my Visitors wall rather than sent me a PM.

    If you drop me your contact number in a PM we can give you a quick buzz :) 

    I'll drop you a quick PM and you can reply to that.
