| Biggest audio hoaxes @bdp24 Are the Townshend products very helpful even for those of us with concrete floors covered with a short rug? My floor feels very stable, and while I respect the idea of vibration control enough to try it, I wonder if my rig is very susceptib... | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @tj-sully It does! Thank you. I would not go for an S-series. More like the T series. | |
| Sellers: When do you drop your price? FYI, Tarun on A British Audiophile has now given the Atoll a "highly recommended." https://youtu.be/yI1aKWbxxpE | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @crustycoot I don't think you mean to say "propaganda". That would imply the literature from REL is false and intentionally misleading. It's information about the products, perhaps with marketing-speak, but not propaganda. Does that make sense? | |
| Upscale Audio and Primaluna @mozartfan I've heard from a longtime experienced speaker maker that Cayin is the real deal and very similar to PL. He thinks they're a great deal.I had a lovely conversation with John Rutan at Audio Connection. Why not work with someone with both... | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @amg56 I don't see in REL's literature where it says the "T" series are "aimed" for home theater. They say it can do both. Do others with T series subs believe they bought a sub for home theater by mistake?I know that Rel has an "HT" series. When ... | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs I do like the idea of newer subs. A Salk sub would be nice but 75lbs each? Probably harder to resell, no? | |
| Upscale Audio and Primaluna From what I've read and learned, Primaluna is good but "top shelf"? Um, can't see that. | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @kren0006 I think the R328 was a more expensive model at the time and so it's at the same level, perhaps, as the S5, now? If so, that's at least a rough analogy.I'm not in the market to buy two $2500 subs to replace a single older $2k sub; I would... | |
| The Music Room @ebm You have now said that they sell "maginal [sic] junk" and "good stuff."Perhaps you had one bad experience but really -- be fair.I've had nothing but flawless dealings with them, including trials. Peachtree, Focal, REL, Shunyata, Analysis Plus... | |
| A non-subjective recommendation for the Puritan PSM156 Really good to hear these experiences. Every time I listen to Paul at P.S. Audio I think, "Why wouldn't you want to regnerate perfect power and how can any conditioner be better?" Then I read about Puritan and some others and just get so confused ... | |
| Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth" @213runnin Thanks. Previous posts in this thread addressed all those things. | |
| Older vs. newer REL subs @stereoisomer Thanks. I did a lot of homework on the matching sub question and this is why I still have one sub. Because it had to match. Now that I've found a match, it's the right time to ask, "newer or older" matching subs. It would cost money,... | |
| Biggest audio hoaxes That's quite an expensive knob. And boy, what a con job. I'd rather inject Lysol to cure my Covid or shine a UV light on my body. | |
| Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth" @sugabooger I did do tone frequency sweeps with both amplifiers. Not much difference at all. Nor with impulse responses. |
