Effects of concrete as base for subs, speakers and potentially equipment
This is why I love this site. I will go ahead and get something made up. @mitch2 i will be playing around with some of those suggestions.    @ditusa what is the order of lead and concrete? What is on the floor and what are the speakers on top of?...

Effects of concrete as base for subs, speakers and potentially equipment
Thanks @erik_squires i have loaded weight on top, but the hollow under the floor is pretty significant. I have it on a wooden platform now and that helped a lot.    This is as much as playing with form as it is function. I won’t keep anything tha... 
Vitus Sia 025 with REL. Or any other xlr balanced amp
Thanks Matt.    that’s how it was connected and is far from impressive. It’s rel’s recommendation to move away from high level due to the sensitivity of the speakers.    if it were a different set up it would still be high level although when us...

Vitus RI-100 And REL G2 Sub Wiring Experience?

Tube amps - what 3 things…
This has been a great thread - which is why I love this site! I will be reading and rereading everyone's comments. To fill in some gaps and respond to some of your comments -  Room is an open plan lounge of 9m by 8m. Currently running some 99db ... 
Tube amps - what 3 things…
Thanks all. @jjss49 I deliberately left out that detail as I was looking for a 1st pass on features. But understand your point. The listening space is an open plan 7m by 9m. There won’t be any decisions without home demos.    @mulveling this is g... 
Tube amps - what 3 things…
Not gonna lie, I had to google that. Do amps need to be DHT “ready” or are you saying make sure you get those types of tubes?  
How hot is hot when moving from class a/b to to a or tubes?
