| Upscale Audio and Primaluna @andysf Interesting point. Would be interesting to have something like a "fair trade" label on audio to ensure that not only products but components are sourced in ethical ways and with working conditions that are up to snuff, too. And, of course... | |
| Biggest audio hoaxes I would love to have some kind of noise cancelling system for a listening room. A bit pie in the sky, but people have spent a lot for what seems a lot less plausible.https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/sound-cancelling-speakers-in-bedroom-for-traffic/ | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @amg -- Thanks for the clarification. I've now heard from two REL dealers that explained why the S series was better but also from another user who's said that a person at REL said that either the 9 or the S would be good.I think it's typically a ... | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs Thanks, all. Lots of possibilities. Gonna sleep on it! | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @missioncoonery My mistake! My apologies. It was not you. I will delete my post!By the way, I'm in discussions about the S series, now. Thanks for your reports about your experience. | |
| Apple Launching Lossless Music Subscription Service? Yep. Now Amazon: https://techcrunch.com/2021/05/17/amazon-makes-its-its-lossless-music-streaming-service-a-free-upgra... | |
| The Music Room Yeah, it’s not just me.You said: ebm 05-15-2021 11:19amThey sell a lot of maginal junk.You got called on that by me and by stereo54, who said@ebm,that is quite a slanderous statement. Anything to back it up?It's not fair to just spout stuff and th... | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs Below it was said that the T series from REL was aimed at home theater.Watch this video on the S 510 and notice how often he mentions "home theater."https://youtu.be/tN6IraLOjMg | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs Thanks for the recent comments. It's good to know when one is moving towards overkill in their room. So that could be one reason one would not spend an extra $1,000 for the S series. If there was a good reason to do it and I wanted to spend that m... | |
| The Music Room @ebm You misspelled, "I take my comment back." | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @arafiq Great questions! Thanks. And I'm glad to know the newer are beating out the older. I'm leaning heavily to the T/9 series. The other tempting thing for me is the value of a Rythmik sub, which people seem to love and it gives more control ov... | |
| Biggest audio hoaxes @noromance Good suggestion. I'll probably do that! | |
| A non-subjective recommendation for the Puritan PSM156 @soma70 Thank you. Helpful addition. My amps are 60w tubes, so not "high powered" by a long stretch. | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @missioncoonery Where is the S510 available for $2k each? As I price it out, I paid $1k for my present sub, used. I can probably get $600 or so for trade in with the folks nearby who trade and sell gear; if I get two $1500 T/9 subs with them, it t... | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @wolf_garcia Thanks. I'll check my springs (and my neck bolt, while I'm at it).Others here -- same experience? Subs don't have any issues due to vibration over time? Good to confirm, especially if I'm looking at a used sub. |
