| How much does power amplifier really matter comparing to other hi-fi components? I'll preface my statement with, I don't believe in absolutes in audio, because all rooms/systems are different. That being said, I recently changed from my Jeff Rowland 625 S2 amplifier to a pair of Jeff Rowland 735 mono-amps. My dealer(Albert at ... | |
| REL vs JL AUDIO I have owned dual SVS SB15 and SB16 Ultras, HSU, JL Audio, Martin Logan Depth and REL subwoofers. I prefer the REL G1 mkII over every other subwoofer that I've owned. JL Audio subwoofers hit harder, but to my ears, in my room/system, no other subw... | |
| REL vs JL AUDIO I've owned both....dual JL Audio F110 v2 with CR1; JL Audio F112 v2, dual REL Carbon Limited, and I currently own dual REL G1 mkII subwoofers. I submit like most things in this hobby it comes down to personal preference. | |

| To Stream or not to Stream izjjzi,". I see it's another offering where you have to buy the separate PSU." I started with the Antipodes S40. After I had the S40 I decided to purchase the S30, S60 PSU and K10 ripper. No absolutes in audio; therefore no matter one's preference... | |

| Connecting external preamp to AVR tony1954,"Best thing I ever did was running a HT bypass." I agree! | |
| Isoacoustics overweight Not exactly overweight, but I use GAIA 1s. Their max is 220 lbs and my speakers are 220 lbs. I recently contacted IsoAcoustics about their new Titan series and decided to stay with the 1s. | |

| Jeff Rowland Corus versus Audio Research Ref 6 keithr, DartZeel and several others come at significantly higher cost than I'm willing to spend. Especially without hearing them in my system. | |
| Jeff Rowland Corus versus Audio Research Ref 6 Syntax,I should have added that I'm convinced that my Rowland components don't get 100% out of my speakers. The Rowland my get 90% out of my speakers, but the next 5-10% is too cost prohibited for me. So, I recognize there's another level, but b... | |
| Jeff Rowland Corus versus Audio Research Ref 6 jond,Thanks. I'm just sharing my experience and my comments are not meant to be an indictment against the Ref. 6 or an endorsement of the Corus.
