| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Normally I would say that if you like the gsg then I would go with the gsg. But your case may be a bit more complex. It appears that the gsg subs are passive so depending on what amp you use, you may not even have low pass capabilities not to ment... | |
| un-becoming an audiophile I understand what you are saying. I love listening to music but I have a very difficult time listening to music that has poor SQ. Fortunately there are tools available in the market place that can alleviate and possibly eliminate the issues that ... | |
| More Bass I would have thought with the 7" woofers and a rated frequency response of 22-30K Hz, there would have been a bit more bass Mr. Yachts, You mention that you thought there should be a bit more bass, does this mean that the bass is non-existent ... | |
| REL six pack questions Your observations are very astute. I agree with you, I would have all units in place after the bottom one is properly located, and make the initial adjustments individually. All over lapping frequencies reproduced by different drivers would ha... | |
| Question about Active Bi-amping With the two integrated amps you mention you can only do passive bi-amping with speakers that are designed to be bi-amped. I believe you should be able to connect all of your sources to one amp then use the preamp outs from that amp and connect t... | |
| New Rel Carbon Special Sub “Roars” when there is no signal! I totally agree. If it is acoustic feedback and I believe that it is, it is the most bizarre case I have ever come across. My guess is that the high level speaker cable is the culprit. I’m guessing that since it is a speaker level connection, REL... | |
| New Rel Carbon Special Sub “Roars” when there is no signal! Sounds like you were experiencing acoustical feedback. Having the issue diminish or disappear all together when you moved the sub is an indicator that you were able to disrupt the phase relationship between the subs output and input and since you ... | |
| Adding Subs to a 2 channel system. Wiring advise Good Day Mr. 88 I apologize for the slow response. I do not frequent this site much so if you have a future question directed to me, it would be best to pm me. In my opinion SVS makes a good product at a decent price point. I have two SVS SB4000... | |
| Adding Subs to a 2 channel system. Wiring advise Hi Mr. 88 To answer or question more directly, my opinion is that the amount of signal degradation you would hear from your mains with the wiring scheme you have stated should be imperceptible. If you do hear a difference from your Focals, I bel... | |
| Subwoofer with Floorstanding Speakers? It appears that your Olympica Nova V's can be bi-amped. You might want to start by trying that to see if that adds enough low end to your rock recordings. Integration would be far simpler. Separate gain control with each amp would be required for ... | |
| Line Array VS Traditional Box Speakers, Why not just get the line array ? If you are interested in achieving live sound in your home I think that your instincts are good, but I’m not sure that actual, pro line array speakers are necessary unless you have a large room and are looking for exceptionally loud volume. There... | |
| How much faster of a sub is the REL T5X vs SVS SB12-NSD Speed of a driver is determined by one thing only and that is by how high a frequency it can reproduce. The higher the frequency, the faster the driver. Tubby or boomy bass (slow decay of the bass notes in your room) is an acoustics issue. Not s... | |
| Does a REL subwoofer make the speakers' job easier? 1. The sub would make the speakers’ job easier by not sending the low bass signal (i.e., below the crossover point) to them. This can be true as long as the crossover in question has high pass filter capabilities. A feature very few powered su... | |
| Is There A Big Difference Between Subwoofers From Different Manufacturers Hey ryder, Not sure if this is the kind of information that you are looking for. In my system I am currently using 2) SVS SB4ooo's, 1) Rythmik F12SE and 1) REL S5 SHO (predecessor to the S812). In my opinion the Rythmik has a slightly better soun... | |
| Audiophile Speakers for Rock, HipHop and Techno @tmac1700, are you just looking for new speakers or do you want your rock, hiphop and techno tracks to sound better? You mention boomy bass, that is normally a room acoustics issue, usually handled quite well with multiple subs, room treatments a... |
