| Leaving my amplifier on ok? REL recommended that I leave my subs on continuously. I have not reached out to McIntosh yet for their advise on SS gear. | |
| Adding an Sub that doesn't go well below speakers? First off, I'd love to hear that kit in person. Regarding the REL's, I believe those Marten's would require the speed of the S series in order to fully disappear in the mix. As an added benefit they go deeper. If you spoke with REL, which is easy ... | |
| High end speakers at low volume A couple of REL subwoofers, connected via high level input, would accomplish exactly what your wanting to hear. They bring out the best / fullness of your system without the need for volume. | |
| Can anyone hear the difference when you add REL subwoofers when playing two channel It is obvious while reading through this thread that some expect subwoofers to create unrealistic low-end bass that is beyond what was created in the recording; similar to a car stereo. The other half realizes that subwoofers support the system an... | |
| Speaker recommendations :-) Seems to be quite a few Borresen fans here. Anyone own the Z1 or Z1 Cryo. Really wanting to pull the trigger on a pair for small room (13' x 11' x 9'). I’d appreciate any feedback and apologize in advance for the mini-hijack. | |
| Demise of bass quality in Main speakers I’m of the opinion that sub(s) should not be audible themselves in the room rather they mesh with the mains to create a single sound. The reason I added a REL to my system was a search for increased fullness in the music. The primary benefit I act... | |
| Subwoofer Choice soix 6,498 posts 03-13-2023 at 12:03am As much as I might respect Rel, I think you should take a hard look at a pair of SVS SB1000 Pro sealed subs. They’ll do 20Hz (-3dB) as opposed to the Rels only going to 27Hz (-6dB), and the SB1000s,... | |
| Am I Better Off With Limited Low Frequency Speaker In A Small Room? I have the same size two channel room. McIntosh C-47 pre, MC152 amp, B&W 805d3 and REL T-7x. Room is GIK treated. Added the REL last and by far was the greatest improvement to overall sound; especially at low levels. | |
| How long should speaker cables be? @ghdprentice ”In general, everything should be as short as possible” my wife disagrees. :) | |

| Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good First one to come to mind. Pink Floyd - Animals | |
| The response for REL regarding subwoofers My first instinct is their response was directed towards the use of the line level output. I would think the LFE connection would provide the ability to increase bass volume although integration with the system may be more challenging. | |
| What do audiophiles do in their cars? The days of old are gone. Today’s cars with the upgraded stereo systems are normally an integrated system that includes the navigation package. These systems for the most part are fairly impressive sounding for “stock” systems when compared to tho... | |
| DAC That Punches Above Its Price Point Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M. $500. Does MQA. Crutchfield 90 day return. Well worth a listen. | |
| B&W speakers sounding very harsh? I'll throw in my two cents. I think everyone here would agree that trying to grade out a system at 50 hours is foolish. All new components, speakers, cables... need 2,3 or 4 times that much time to effectively burn in to produce their true sound.... |
