| Rel T/7x sub sound improvement but… Have you tried lowering the crossover frequency? And maybe turn the gain down a bit? Is the sub in a corner where you might be getting a lot bass reinforcement? | |

| Amplifier recommendation @helomech What did you use for a preamp with the No 8? I upgraded from an older Coda to the No 8. I don't find it lacking in bass at all. | |

| Whats playing on your system today? Kacey Musgraves album Deeper Well. It's labeled as Country, but I don't think it is. Very nice sounding album. You need to give it a listen. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Thanks for the information. I have seen their listings on US Audiomart. Looks interesting, but I hadn't seen any reviews. I just took delivery of a Black Cat Silverstar 88 rca interconnect. Early impressions are very good. | |
