| Subwoofer insight. Chaz, - 6 @19hz is getting closer. Now if REL can just go a little lower for less $. The RELs are pretty though. | |
| Subwoofer insight. You have a point Sounder. Just pointing out cheaper and better options.Chaz, it’s not fake news. Try listening to a simple acoustic recording then a complicated classical piece and see which seems more detailed.Tweak, any quality sub can be integr... | |
| Subwoofer insight. Of course the RELs sound more detailed because they are producing less music that would otherwise compete with the higher bass frequencies. The less bass a speaker produces the more detailed they seem. By saying you will never play anything with b... | |
| Subwoofer insight. Okay. I have 30 years in the business of selling and installing systems and tuning them for many satisfied customers. I never intended to insult you Ric. I'm sure your system sounds good. I just know the RELs are twice the money of the SVS subs wh... | |
| Subwoofer insight. No. I haven't heard them in my system but I've heard them in systems I'm well aware of. Setup is the key to making a sub work without thumping. The REL subs are decent but overpriced for less in many educated opinions. | |
| Subwoofer insight. The SVS subs are half the price of the RELs. And that's just one example. | |

| Subwoofer insight. The SVS 16s are much better than the RELs for half the money. | |
| Power Amplifier Longevity If you do get an older amp be sure you can find service manuals and schematics for it. Most everything is repairable with some exceptions. But it is much harder without a schematic. | |
| IKEA launches modular speaker line - watch out Wilson, Magico... HOW DARE YOU! | |
| Best bass in Earth! Bass that just smells right... To really set up your subs to their utmost ability without cancellation you need Mini-DSP. It may be fiddly at first but it is acclaimed as one of the best and least expensive solutions available.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4OY0MhMKTchttps://... | |
| CD Player vs. music streaming I enjoy CDs myself but I like to put my music on my computer using JRiver. I also store much of my music in FLAC format onto usb thumb drives. I can put hundreds of albums on a single drive and play them back in the car and I can plug them into my... | |
| SACD or not SACD can be great but BluRay audio is better I believe, if done well. |
