Rel Does Not Recomment Isolation Stands

@oldhvymec

I understand. As I said, I was somewhat shocked when I learned this. From an engineering standpoint, it seems wrong. However, I have had them for 15-20 yrs and they sound great to me. Integrating with the speakers is very easily done too. Once they are setup, they add much more than just deep bass. That said, I’m still thinking of the ramifications of this " Controlled Rattle" system of integration.

I’ll probably file this along with the cables which also make a difference despite but don’t measure good

I have been running Rel’s for 15-20 yrs. They sound great and integrate extremely well. No worries about performance...unless you isolate them. I wouldn't give up on them

The secret is to keep the crossover point as low as possible. Volume should be just enough to blend with the mains. They make the mains sound even better.
