REL T/5i compatibility with Yamaha integrated?
I have a pair of the T7i and have the same issue with the Speakon connections. I do get response but it is poor. The only success I've had is using RCAs. First thing is the .1/LFE is for home theater, not music. You definitely want to be using the... 
Chirp in speak
Have maid hold celery stick close to speaker. It will eventually have to drink and that will draw it in.

How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
@roxy54 dude, chill, seriously. Why this animosity for what I thought was a pretty straightforward queston?  
looking to upgrade - identify the weakest link?

Subwoofer cable question
Don't confuse the LFE with the .1/LFE. One is for low level 2 channel connection and the other is for home theater. I didn't have much success using the Neutrik Speakon connection; mine sound better with the low level RCA connection.  
Thank you Veterans!
Thank you.  
Seeing sounds and music.....

Has Anyone Here Tried The SVS Soundpath Feet On A Rel Sub?
Agreed @b_limo . Exact same experience. 
Has Anyone Here Tried The SVS Soundpath Feet On A Rel Sub?
I have carpet over a suspended wood floor above the basement. When I had my pair of RELs sitting on the floor it created too much resonance. I ordered the Auralux SubDudes and solved the issue, The great thing about it is I am not changing the dis...
