Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Andynotadam Thanks for sharing your experience using the black fuse in your REL-328 with such clarity. It is a pleasure to read your post. Your results are precisely what I hope to achieve in my system. Many audiophiles, unfortunately, do not fully understand the real benefits of a properly set-up REL sub-woofer. There are many subs with "more" BASS but REL is not about more bass. It is more about revealing ultra low frequency information relating to the scale and acoustics of the musical venue. The input to my REL is the same output my amplifier sends to the loudspeakers. I use the excellent Synergistic Research REL SPEC sub-woofer cable with the Speakon connection. For power I use the Audience Power Chord. (Not the best performer but it is good enough). |
^^^ Nyame ... I believe it. I thought I was getting good bass from my full range Legacy Signature III's until I heard Bob's (fellow A'goner) system. Bob uses a pair of Venture speakers, a great speaker in its own right, and he's added a sub woofer to the system. I've heard Venture speakers many times, but it was a whole new ballgame with the sub in place. Also, it was easy for Bob to switch the sub in and out for an A-B comparison. What a good sub does for the system is pretty amazing. Not just more bass ... but more of everything, including an expansion of the sound stage and an improvement in overall musicality and realism. I'm thinking about the REL T-5. What do you guys think of it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-NqdDV64bY OP |
Wait ... I've been thinking about the REL S/5 and not the REL T/5. This is the one: http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/rel-s5-subwoofer/ Anyone using this? Thanks ... |
