REL Magic


I have to report this finding as a breakthrough to a new plateau. For the past four years, I have been running two REL Strata III's, one behind each Maggie 3.6R. RELs have always been known for their hook up at the speaker outputs. By this method of integration, REL boasts that their subs somehow lift the entire system. I have always felt this to be true, especially with one for each amp.
But now, I have just completed DIY signal cables for each sub using the same Neutrik connectors into the subs. I used some 16-gauge OCC copper wire by Furutech in the same terminal scheme as the stock cords. As expected, the bass notes are more extended and better defined, but this phenomenon of improving the whole presentation has also appeared again as even more impressive. Everything across the soundscape is just a bit more sweet and clear. If you have not upgraded your REL signal cables, please do.

Sunnyboy1956,

You're very welcome. I suspect the stock cable would have rendered less impressive results. But, frankly, I was underwhelmed by the SR REL reference cable. The difference between it and the stock cable left me wondering.

Imagine I was about to order either the AQ or SR cable and only discovered the Bassline on this thread. That's what makes this a great forum to exchange ideas, learn and enjoy his hobby/affliction

Sunnyboy1956,

I learn a lot from others here. I am glad to pass on information I think can be helpful.

Now that you've had the Bassline Blue cables for over a week can you go in more detail of what you hear vs. the standard REL cable?
Thanks
