i hear sim audio amps are unreliable
PerfectcircleI didn't ask any details as to why my dealer dropped the line. Also as far as I know he didn't have any problems with units not working. Again I really didn't care because I didn't care for the sound. He did replace the Sim line with ... 
i hear sim audio amps are unreliable
Elizabeth - He/she is asking a question regarding reliability of a product. My local dealer dropped the Sim line a couple of years ago. All he said was he was having problems with the factory. I could care less because I personally don't care for ... 
Coconut Audio $1.5 million power cord
Yeah you would have to be a CooCoo nut to believe that 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Thanks for the reply. I will say the cable did the same for me. I would have to say the cable added to the speed of my B3 because again I heard attack and decay I never knew existed. It blends in perfectly with my Dyn C1 sig's. 
Anyone tighten the bolts surrounding the drivers?
I check mine at least once per year. 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Joey - Did you have the original Rel cable when you first got the B3? If so how would you describe the difference after upgrading to the SR cable? 
Dynaudio C1 II vs Focal Micro BE vs Harbeth SHL5
The guys from Dynaudio are great. I met Emilios Mike and Mick. Have you rolled any tubes in the V70? I would kind of compare the Kt120's to the Sed 6550 but on steroids. Not that much louder just more of everything. The main reason I went back to ... 
Dynaudio C1 II vs Focal Micro BE vs Harbeth SHL5
Forgot to mention. The KT120's sounded real good for the first 15 - 20hrs. I ran them for 150hrs and at around 100hrs I really didn't care for the change in sound YMMV. Now at the same time as getting the V110 I also replaced my Meridian G08 with ... 
Dynaudio C1 II vs Focal Micro BE vs Harbeth SHL5
The V110 has slightly better with control over the V70SE in high power mode. Haven't gone to 'low' 6550/KT88 power yet. Personally I don't care for the KT120's. Very forward and somewhat bright. I still need to play with input and driver tubes to ... 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Wolf - Bo1972 did the same thing in the cable forum when a question was asked comparing Nordost to Transparent. He said how much better Audioquest Redwood is superior to the Valhalla and Transparent. http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&a... 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Jkuc The only cable I have tried is the Nordost baseline. My brother in law has the Q150 and he has the signal cable and said it was a big improvement too. The C1's would sound better if they were on the short wall but I have a strange room and th... 
Music suddenly sounds wrong, no dynamics
My first guess is the electrical but it typically comes and goes with the electrical usage. Did this occur after someone recently moved in? If possible try to 'borrow/demo' an re-generator and not a battery back up.  
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
My room is 26 1/2 ft X 12 1/2 ft with the speakers on the long wall. It's the only way my room allows. Anyhow I have the B3 crossed over at 33hz. The sub sits about 3ft to the right of my right speaker. For me I want to have the sub pick up where ... 
Usher Be 718 or Dynaudio C1
Can't comment on the Ushers (never heard them) but I am a C1 owner. I will say that the C1 MKII/Sig doesn't need to be turned up to sound great like the original's did. I went from the original to the Sig and at low to mid volumes they are much be...

Well said Wolf
