Great Tony!
I was looking at this sub also.
Hesitating between a pair of them or one single No. 25.
I will be very interested in your experience!

Are you using high level Speakon connection?


Yes, high level.

New addition. I had a REL B3 Britannia a few years ago but sold it when I got the Amatis. This sounds awesome so far: bass is clean and fast (1000 watts driving a 12” carbon fiber driver + a 12” passive on the bottom), and deep, and imaging is more solid. My wife says I should get two but there just isn’t enough space for a stereo setup, I’d have to move it to the corner and stack them.

Tony, I've read several times that sixpacks of these work extremely well.
