| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? Started with one sub. A REL Carbon Special and yes, amazing first impressions. However, it only took a day to realize I could not fully integrate it for every type of music. I was constantly up from my seat to adjust gain. It was short lived exper... | |
| Deal Fellow REL Owners @dalims4 Thank you. Already went with Kimber Kable REL CU and I’m very happy with them and have to give a shout out to Kimber. Their customer service is outstanding. I’m embarrassed that I missed the vdHs PCs. I was looking for finished cables b... | |
| Deal Fellow REL Owners @dalims4 Thank you for your the synopsis of your findings. You and @jerryg123 mention Signal Cable and they seem reasonably priced. Which Signal Cable did you have that was second to the vdHs? I checked vdHs' website and do not see PCs? @tablejoc... | |
| Deal Fellow REL Owners @hilde45 Thank you. Helps validate my thoughts. It's possible the Anticables L2 are overkill. How long ago did you reach out to REL? I may contact them as well. | |
| What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly? I reached a point of needing power cables and the problem I have with many of the manufacturers is that they are like Baskin Robbins... WAY too many flavors. Talk about a major turn off. Do any of you non-shill, non-dealer, actual consumers like t... | |
| DAC recommendation in 5 to 10K range @tahsin1022 Please show me a review where someone prefers the terminator plus over the May KTE. Not being snarky, I would love to see one because I have not yet come across such. Thank you. @elan120 This is one of the best DAC reviewers I've foun... | |
| DAC recommendation in 5 to 10K range @elan120 Do yourself a favor and try to hear the Holo May KTE. Search YouTube for reviews. You will find head to head commentary on most of what has been suggested here. I have heard the MSB Discrete as well and it is decent but for me it was not ... | |
| DAC recommendation in 5 to 10K range ++Holo May. I have auditioned many DACs and is why I own a May. This includes offerings five times its price point. It is the best bargain in my journey thus far. The only knock is that is gets hot, class A hot. | |
| Anybody watch Steve Huff audio on the Tube? Steve is a great guy. How many YouTube personalities take time to respond to email? Steve does and often with thoughtful, lengthy letters. He is passionate about gear and has had a cool life as a photographer. He even has an album cover or two on ... | |
| Soundstage and image height, does it exist? My friends and I have tested this by trying the same gear in different rooms. Our conclusion is that image height is a function of ceiling height and position of the drivers. Canting the speakers fore and aft can change the image height as well. G... | |
| Your sub experience: Easy or hard? Easiest and most significant impact to SQ, to date. Started with a single REL Carbon Special. Returned it because I had to keep adjusting the gain. I could not find a one size fits all setting for my exacting taste. I tried a REL 212SX next and I ... | |
| Balanced Line Stage Tube Preamps +1 Aesthetic Calypso. I have the Signature. | |
| Anyone compared Merging+NADAC to other top dogs like Rockna, dcs, MSB etc. I was able to home demo the +player for several weeks, however I was only able to AB it against an older Accuphase and newer Lumin X1 DAC. I preferred it over those two for realism as well as the other observations above. The only knock is with t... | |
| recommended speaker cables and interconnects I too am searching for a loom. I have learned from experience that there is a huge number of counterfeit cables on the used market. Steer clear unless the seller has positive proof the cables are legit. Look for receipts and contact the manufactu... | |
| GIK alternatives Terrible build quality. PM me for specifics. It was sad after such high expectations. I can provide numerous photos from a recent delivery of several panels and traps. The good news is that they have excellent customer support. I accepted a disco... |
