Martin Logan 13A's with Rel subs? A match?


Hi , has anyone with the 13A's have them hooked up to REL subs? How do they sound? Was it a satisfactory jump? Are you using a single sub or a pair?

Was it easy to hookup? and how did you ground the negative wire on your amp? Floating? Chassis? etc

 

thanks

@mikepaul   To your question of one or two subs, I think the answer lies in the amp you are using.  If you have a single stereo amp, the REL connection will capture all the bass.  However, if you are running monoblocks, you absolutely require two subs.  I run a pair of REL S/812s and I'm very happy with them.  As noted above, the wiring of a REL sub is very dependent on whether or not the amp is truly balanced.  You'll know right away if you get it wrong as your speakers will be trying to jump out of their enclosures.  🤣   Cheers.
