What other Hobbies or Interests Do You Have?
@mijostyn No need for anti-depressants.  It's not chemical. Thanks for your note. Yeah, I like working on the house. Fed up with how our country is headed. I hate property tax. How do you ever retire? 20 years would equal over $200,000. Where do y... 
Subwoofer or New Speaker
The REL uses superior Speakon high-level inputs direct from the speaker(s) where the SBS needs a sub RCA input.

So the room is small. One REL T5i for $600. If you like, buy another.  
Subwoofer or New Speaker
A pair of REL T5i will transform your experience. As @yogiboy said, sealed subs, especially new higher tech ones are much faster and tighter. Obviously, room size and budget dictate your needs so look at the 7/9/S series. But 2 or more (swarm) sma... 
My system is where I want it be and it sounds awesome...
You're never finished. Tube roll yet? 
The shams, scams and dead ends of the High Fidelity hobbie/passion/adiction
Sould likely have included the second D in addiction...And a y in "hobbie"! 
Finally bought a new Turntable!
If it sounds good and your volume control is further along than it was, you've less carbon track in the way of the music which is a good thing. 
What other Hobbies or Interests Do You Have?
No time for other interests. Commuting to works wastes 15 hours a week. Work another 40. Maybe some reading and complaining about taxation without benefits and representation. Most money goes on home repairs and property tax. 
Manley Chinook Owners Tube Rolling
@fruitloopsr Yes, I use them. I only recommend stuff I've heard and/or used.  Rhodium on phono preamp and gold on subs. OFC copper and well made. A big improvement over stock. I keep meaning to add them to my monoblocks but they are hard wired. ... 
You could work for any manufacturer, past or present...
Myself. If I had been brave enough to sell my phono amp back in the late 80s. Who knows where it would have gone. After reading Paul McGowan's book, I can imagine. Instead, I work for the man and hate every day of it.

@tomic601 No mono with that one. But I did get it from another. Neil Young - Rust Never Sleeps (Reprise 1979)One of my all time favorites. Sounds great.

@spiritofradio I do like me some Al by the way. I'll spin some later. I've a few of his records. Off the top of my head, Past, Present / Zero She Flies ("Said the apple to the orange...") / Modern Times... um.. maybe another...
