| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers Richard, you ordered one cable or two from Signal? If you are running two subs, I would think you need two cables ( one per sub). Your post above seems to indicate that you ordered a single cable. | |
| How many amps do you own? @seasoned +1 | |
| How many amps do you own? George, you might be surprised that another amp would give you a different ’flavor’ which you might equally like as much as your ’best to do the job’. IME, there are several different variations on a theme ( ss vs tube,Class A, Class AB, Class D e... | |
| Which stereo amp to try under $30k Maybe look at the Jeff Rowland models. Jeff makes some terrific gear. | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 Good move on the Signal cables. Signal make some excellent cables at very fair prices, imo. | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 BTW, replacing the stock power cord and better still, the stock connecting cable with a REL Signal cable is a BIG step up in SQ for these subs. I highly recommend the Signal cable that they will supply with the yellow and red cables summ... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 Richard, what made you pick the Carbon Limited vs one of the other REL Subs. The new S series seems to be where they are concentrating their line. The Carbon series isn't even on their web page, unless you do a specific search. Seems lik... | |
| A brief review of 15 high-end speakers on home demo including B&W, Boenicke, Magico,Wilson Nice thread. IMO, this shows exactly why there are so many variables of opinion about the varying speaker products that are available. The OP has used his room, his taste, his electronics and his expectations to clearly determine what is best for ... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers Richard, I am not suggesting that having two subs is a negative issue. In fact, I believe that two subs is quite beneficial. The second sub allows one to not only have a sub dedicated for each channel, but also seems to help in taming various roo... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 Al’s comment above about the balanced aspect of your amp is correct. I use both a balanced output amp ( the Rowland) and a non-balanced mono amp ( Jadis), The points that Al brought up are 100% correct with the balanced design. Nonetheles... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 If you are not connecting the black wire, I would be concerned that you are not grounding the sub. I connect my subs with the red and yellow summed to the red output per amp and the black to the black output per amp. This is with dual sub... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 By summing the red and yellow wires together and using the black wire to negative you are only getting the signal from one channel of your amp. This is the way that I connect my dual subs...one per channel! But if you connect just one s... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 I think the blend is where it’s all at. The fact that the subs take their signal directly from the amp in the high level set up is what has distinguished REL’s for me over the years. REL used to claim that this was allowing the sub to m... | |
| REL subs with Rowland Amplifiers @ricred1 So, REL are suggesting that you run a ic from your LFE on the sub to your preamp? I guess that would ground the sub, but I wonder if you also wouldn't potentially create a ground loop? As I stated before, the ground connection that Jeff... | |
| JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing @mozartfan, Maybe you could explain why you continue placing blame at the Jadis’ amps feet, when you keep on describing other gear in your system that is failing...or has failed, ie the acquisition of the Marantz preamp. ( which BTW, I doubt would... |
