JL Gotham F212 v2 vs ?
Spacial not social*** Following the beautifully made $8900. British REL Studio III's setup procedures... We then relocated it, placed on its side to directly radiate the drivers and fed the same EQ'd low level (RCA) signal from th Velodyne @... 
JL Gotham F212 v2 vs ?
It’s not just about smoothing out modes. Its about recreating the subtle social textures in greater detail. The sonic pictures that the REL helps create will take your system to another level. You could do 2 stereo stack of RELs (4×812se) and be u... 
Subwoofer insight.
I'm a REL S5 SHO owner. You can't go wrong with REL as long as you match correctly to your mains and room size. IMO the T series is a bit smallish for your room size. I think a stereo pair of the 812se is probably more what your room size needs. C...

IMO stereo pairs of the REL 212se and 2x stereo REL 812se’s. The 812’s are stackable. I would also consider a stereo pair of the Rel 25.The 212 and 812 with the smaller drivers would probably be a bit more nimble but the 25 would blend better with... 
My system is where I want it be and it sounds awesome...
I have an Oppo 203 as backup and a 205 as my daily driver. IMO the 205 with the lower noise floor is superior at picking up fine details and reproducing a sense of space. YMMV 
Maybe being discerning isn't that good for us?
I choose the rabbit holes that maximize the pleasure of my listening experience given a reasonable return of investment. I choose as starting points the #1 weakness in my system taking into consideration the limitations of my listening area. YMMV

Excellent 1st impressions post.I really appreciate your efforts here @guidocoronaBravo!!! 
Help - Subwoofer Crossover when both REL T/5i & Marantz AV7702mkII have Crossover settings
Listen very, very closely to the phase. Inverted phase sounds like a 'vacum'. On first or second listen it can indeed be difficult to tell the difference at first. Toggle back and forth until you hear a difference. 
Help me decide which E88CC tubes i should buy
Regarding the EBay listings posted here...Brandimix’s pair at $299 are way overpriced for what they test. They aren't even matched very well. I’ve found that matched 75 silver shields testing at 11-12 mA/V range are generally selling in the $150-$...

rodman999994,223 posts02-29-2020 4:49pmWell; your tastes in sound seem to mirror my own.     As I asked: do you have a lead, on any genuine, NOS of the specific Reflektor tube, that topped that list?     At what price?     I haven’t seen any, i... 
It looks like a debate to me.
Lots of different ways to get great sounding music. Enjoy them all I say! 🙂geoffkait19,984 posts02-29-2020 2:19pmQuite the prima donna. So emotional! Whew! 😡ROFL! 😄 
Help me decide which E88CC tubes i should buy
@rodman99999 The 75 silver shields cost much less than your CCA's. On that epic 6922 shootout  at HeadFi, the consensus is that the Reflektors better both the Siemens CCA's and Telefunken e188cc's. I've never heard either of those so I couldn't co...

rodman999994,221 posts02-29-2020 6:52amAnother, "btw": It’s important, when reading tube comparisons, to pay close attention to the descriptions of the tube construction and dates of manufacture.     The presentations can vary(dramatically), betw...

Andy is a good guy but will sell you what he has in stock. The Tele 6dj8’s I bought were from Andy. The first set had a bad tube. The replacement set was mismatched, and while I was waiting for the 3rd set I ordered the Reflektors. With Zero hours...
