| REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear? Got it...I'll try it. Thanks! | |
| REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear? Thanks Al. Are you sating I should jumper both amps from common to ground even though the black wire from the REL is only connected to one?Thanks very much. I'm assuming there should never be a hum...even a slight one? | |
| REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear? Thanks. The Amps are Mc-60s and I've got the REL T-7 wired to the speaker outputs..8ohm/com. I tried jumpering to ground..no change. The hum is pretty slight but definitely there only when the amps are on.. | |
| REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear? Two prong adapter made the hum much louder...:/ | |
| REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear? Thanks, tried grounding to chassis to no avail. I'll try the two prong idea...thanks much. | |
| REL subwoofer with old McIntosh tube gear? Thanks Wolf...what does 'lifting' the ground mean? | |
| Audio Research pre-amps? Atmasphere...I'll see if Mark will lend me something...;) | |
| Audio Research pre-amps? Interesting Al...I'll give that a try. The cables are recent and I didn't notice a huge difference...maybe a little more bass?Like I said before...it's just a touch bright....really nitpicking I think? I'm also a total novice. Thanks for your help... | |
| Audio Research pre-amps? Thanks guys...why ARC? I just like the simplicity and they are a local company to me, so any service would be easy...I'll try playing a bit but my room doesn't allow for much change... | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... An Update: I'm very happy with the REL T7. It's doing exactly what I'd hoped and was pretty easy to set up. I put it in the corner behind the left speaker. I messed with the knobs for about 10 minutes and haven't touched it since. It really added ... | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... Oh sure...that makes sense. I'm still feeling good about the REL. If I'm still not happy, I'll just get a good set of full range speakers. | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... B_limo...yeah, I get it...:)I found more reviews of REL subs last night and they really do seem to have a different philosophy. Most reviewers seem to agree that they're very good with 2 channel stuff...which is what I'm doing. No HT for me...:)A | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... Bob, the sales dude said the REL will improve the bass so much overall, I'm less likely to overdrive the Boxers...does this make sense?Thanks,Aaron | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... Thanks Bob. Yeah, I understand and totally appreicate your advice. I still may need to do a crossover or buy bigger speakers. This was a start and I liked the idea of the REL piggybacking off the amp...it's seems more 'pure'. Honestly, the music t... | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... Thanks Bob, that does help.Well, I bought a REL T-7...I'll get it installed and post my thoughts. I was back and forth on this but adding a sub seems to be the consensus..and the REL seemed like the best for the money. Always a gamble!Thanks,Aaron |
