The "precise" volume setting changes when needed...I instantly know when it's too hot or not, but I have a "default" setting for most of the time, and stuck a "chicken head" knob on the volume so it's easier to steer.
JL Audio now makes small, lower cost sealed 8" and 10" subwoofers in their new Dominion line. Based on my listening to other JLs, these should have no trouble blending with the mains and adding body and dimension to your setup.
Does anybody else use something like the "high level" speaker output driven input like REL?

Velodyne. I had a Velodyne SPL 1000 about 10 years ago with speaker level inputs. The SPL series was replaced with the optimum series.
