| Zu vs. Tekton? -- your comparisons on price, build, sound Zu is an Interesting company. Just looked at their site. Thanks | |
| Bought the wrong subwoofer! @ozzy62 That's why I backed off of the idea. Call SVS. They should know | |
| Bought the wrong subwoofer! I’m not sure that is a problem. The sub itself should attenuate the signal by setting the crossover and the gain/ volume. This is off the top of my head thinking but I have had my coffee. So I can’t even use that as an excuse if I am. BTW what in... | |
| Speakers for Hegel H95 that could use its full potential. 60 wpc is plenty of power for home stereo. Pick the one you like. | |
| Bought the wrong subwoofer! Crazy idea but have you tried the rec out to the subs input? I’m not sure if it will work but it carries the same signal as pre out BTW you may want to read the owner manual on using the rec out and if you have to do something to initiate the rec ... | |
| Subwoofers: speaker level vs line level Or, if continuing to bi-wire, switching to spade connectors for towers while using bananas to sub? This is exactly what I do on the amp end. Neutrik connection plugs into the sub. | |
| Rel Does Not Recomment Isolation Stands @jimcrane 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. V... | |
| 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 ... | |

| Rel S812 fuse, AC cable, footers Has folks here, who own the S812, tried stands/ footers under their subs with positive results? Very unlikely since the Rel subs are meant to integrate with the floor, NOT isolate, as I thought previously. This is why they recommend Blu-Tac ... | |
| Listening to music I don’t particularly like maybe I am more of an "equipmentphile" than a music lover? You are a prime example of Listening to the equipment rather than the music. And you know it. maybe its a phase. I have learned to like some music that I formerly never listened to eith... | |
| Subwoofer cable question @jjss49 Thanks. But Don't be too hard on us geezers. But FWIW, by the time you get to be a geezer, self esteem is usually way down the list of priorities. AAMOF, some shed the need completely after a lifetime of assault on our self esteem. | |
| Subwoofer cable question Good choice @emiliop You'll wonder why you waited so long after getting it set up. Also, if you haven't seen this thread, maybe you should. might give you some tips https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/finally-learned-subs-serve-much-la... | |
| Preamp recommendations for my system please Indeed. welcome to 2021. A world where you can become the slave to the renters of most all your music needs for the price they set which is guaranteed to increase until you ditch it like the people who have ditched cable TV which used to cost $10 ... | |
| Finally Learned: Subs serve much larger role than adding more low bass Welcome aboard. Your header says it all.. it effects more than just deep bass. I am a Rel owner now for 15-20 yrs |
