This subwoofer is white lacquer and brand new in a factory sealed box. I also have a piano black one that is mint, but I have used it for the last month. I only need to keep one of them for myself and I am happy to sell either color. I bought two, but I am so happy using one that I don't feel the need to have dual subs in my room.
Sumiko is a division of Sonus Faber and Sonus Faber helped design the Rel T-5. I previously owned the REL T-5, so I can tell you the main differences. The Sumiko uses a 150 watt amp and the REL T-5 uses a 125 watt amp. The Sumiko sub is a little heavier and the dimensions are a little larger. The Sumiko has an auto standby mode, the REL T-5 doesn't (only European versions do). When active, the Sumiko swirly logo glows dimly white and the REL T-5 logo doesn't glow. The sound of the two subs is very similar, but the Sumiko plays a little lower and adds a little more weight to the sound. Not sure if this matters to the sound, but the Sumiko sub does come with a much beefier power cord.
I will cover the Paypal fees.
