hi Prof,   REL takes a totally different approach to subs than JL.   I am no  expert and am not very technically literate,  but one of my takeaways today was that REL  does not like the outboard crossovers that do what the JL does.  they want the speaker to receive the full range of signal and for the amp to send a full signal to the sub.  i agree with Jafant,  that the REL is not that hard to set up. 

Prof:  boy will i be interested in your take on the Magicos.  They are so well built and i am going tomorrow to the same place and hear a demo by the Magico guy.  They sure seem very free of any coloration's based on my very short listening time.

ronkent, jafant,

I've long been familiar with REL and their approach.  I've had REL subs in my home before.  But I want to try doing subs using a crossover, which have some advantages if done right to the REL system.

thanks Prof.   i am a bit intimidated by the crossovers so opted for REL.  Plus the fact that Paul at PS Audio swears by them
