Reterminate Syn. Research cable, shocking find
Interesting post Islandman. Remember, the more quality that goes into a product, the less profit for a set price. SR's has never been a cable that I felt gave any value for money whatsoever. In the high end biz, that's what it's all about in most ... 
Signal Cable REL cable vs Speakon Custom REL cable
Does anyone have an answer to Louisl's original question? I too would like to know what everyone thinks of the differences between the Signal and zikhmark's cable. 
Best Power Cable for less than $100
Supra Lorad. 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Wolf, I now see what you are saying. But it doesn't make any sense to me. The x-over and the level should be right for all of your recording's. If you are increasing the level from recording to recording, something is wrong, IMO. Again, IMHO, if t... 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Wolf, I think that the REL sub has enough flexibility of control to blend seamlessly with any main speaker. I know with my SF GH's that they blend seamlessly with these speakers. The GH's are ultra fast, and even though i was concerned that this w... 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
Bo1972, Wenn (????) you are a dealer and a competing product is superior, it can be very tempting to denigrate the competition.Unfortunately, wenn (????) your customer discovers the facts, this can lead to a less than stellar reputation...just a t... 
Which REL sub, R528 or B2
I currently use a REL T5. It can keep up with my Sonus Faber Guarneri Hommage's! IMHO, any sub that can keep up with these speakers is anything BUT slow!! The set-up of a sub- and REL is no exception, is crucial in this regard, wrong set-up and th... 
VIVID AUDIO SPEAKERS
A few weeks ago, i heard the Giya G1's. The system was in a large room with Mola Mola amps, Luxman DAC, an Apple Mac book pro doing digital and the Brinkmann Bardo doing analog duty. The speakers were exceptional and threw a very large and well de... 
REL T7 Subwoofer
Audiolui, I own a REL T5, not a T7 but ....This is IMO a great little sub. Superbly fast and able to go down easily into the low 30Hz's. The REL T7 should be equally as adept and therefore I would highly recommend it.BTW, no reliability issues wha... 
ARC D-115: What tubes and cables?
I'm using SED 6550's which are a great tube in my D70Mk2. Also using a pair of Nordost Red Dawn 2's...very quick and open/transparent cable. If you can source a set of GE 6550's, they would also be a great match. BTW, KT120's will NOT work in the ... 
Franco Serblin RIP
Very sad to hear of Mr.Serblin's passing. IMO, he was one of the greatest speaker designer's. RIP. 
Can KT120s be used in ARC D70 Mk2?
Dhcod,KT120's are NOT recommended for the ARC D70Mk2....the trannies aren't up to the extra draw. I use SED 6550 winged C's and they are a great match for this amp. There is some talk that the KT120's aren't as good as the winged C's. I know a few... 
Review: Audio Research D-70 mkII Tube amp
Dhcod,The amp has the biasing stats in the manual. If you cannot source one, ARC has the parameters, I'm sure they would supply to you. As I stated above, the biasing procedure isn't for the faint of heart or less technically inclined...like mysel... 
Review: Audio Research Ref-3 Tube preamp
Excellent review, Rhyno. It would be interesting to see how the Ref 3 performs with rolled in tubes. With my CAT, rolling in tubes was a very big upgrade, increasing dynamics, firming up the bass, and considerably opening up the soundstage. I woul... 
Anyone own Nordost TYR or ODIN?
I recently placed Tyr ic and phono cable into my system and IMO, they are superb cables. Easily beating out my Highwire cabling that was no slouch. Resolution of fine detail and speed are the highlights of this cable.
