Best way to hook up REL sub with single RCA input to preamp/amp combo?
Whether you get mono or stereo depends on the sub and what you have the crossover set to.  
Speaker cabels for dark sounding speakers?
It's probably your sitting position changing. I bought a new couch and cut 2 inches off my speaker stands to get them aligned better with my ears.

Tannoy has settings to adjust have you tried using them ?

R2R Ladder DACs or All in One Streamer Solutions
I don't have any first hand experience with them but Cocktail Audio makes all in one streamer/ripper/storage devices.  
Warm romantic & detailed
The Mac uses room perfect lyngdorf's room correction. It should work fine but you could get a Minidsp DDRC-22D  for $700 and use Dirac.  
Newbie, need advice.
Yes that's what I said set the balanced jumpers to factory -20 they will go higher than 4 volts if you set the jumpers to 0. I used to have a DAC 1 it was made for Studios as well as home use.  
Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity
The amps, dac, DSP is all in the speakers and at some point they will be roon endpoints. Dutch and Dutch 8c.   
Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity
I ditched my system after hearing active speakers and I tap my feet more now than before. The biggest hurdle will be getting audiophiles over their OCD and to listen with their ears instead of their eyes.  
A Very Useful New Discovery--EON Digital Filter from Network Acoustics
Modem/ router > switch . The switch is in my rack I need three connections one for each speaker one for the streamer. I wouldn't know within 5 minutes as I would be doing the evaluation in a blind AB test.  
Newbie, need advice.
The manual shows the voltage but it’s in dBu. As long as the balanced attenuation jumpers are set to -20 or -30 the voltage stays below 10dBu or 2.5v. .775v = 0dBu2.5v = 10dBu 
Newbie, need advice.
Have you ever opened it and changed the balanced attenuation jumpers? If they are set to factory -20 you're fine if not set them to -20.

can absolutely everything you hear be measured on a piece of electronic test gear?Most definitely not only for humans but dogs, bats, dolphins. How many blind listen with and without tests are there? ASR would be happy to measure this chalk and ch... 
R2R Ladder DACs or All in One Streamer Solutions
Dacs are probably the least important part of the reconstruction chain. Any modern 24 or 32 bit DS dac implemented by a competent design team is all you need. Actually I haven’t the faintest idea what DAC chip I’m using other than I know it’s DS a...
