I'm using a Rel Storm III sub and I found something interesting when auditioning sub cables. I was using a cheap ultralink rca cable and tried a cable from xlo ($100) and 2 cables from synergistic research ($300 and $500). No difference whatsoever. Could not tell them apart. So I tried the cables that come with most components (you know those red/yellow/white ones that are about 2mm thick). There was only a very slight degradation in sound! The Rel may be cable-proof, at least via interconnect. Both XLO and SR make a neutrik connector for Rel, and I'll be auditioning those in the next couple of months. No idea if there will be a difference. I started a thread titled 'Strange Rel subwoofer cable phenomenon' recently. There were some informative responses. Check it out. -Dave
Please reccomend a good sub cable
Good Day,
I am looking for a good quality sub cable for my system. I have Classe pre amp and amps, and I have a REL Stadium Sub. I am getting some noise through the speakon connector they provide, and was wondering if any one new of tweaks for that connector, or if some one could reccomend a nice quality rca type sub connector. I feel this is the last of the upgrades that I need to make, and am open to any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance for your time and advice.
