Krell 400xi or Musical Fidelity A5 for ML Summit?
Nrchy, just because you don’t like Krell equipment does not mean you have to bash it in every post you can.jlevine, I own Krell gear and its top end is not harsh at all. Please list the cabling you are using on your equipment and if you are using ... 
Focal JM Lab
Gilman, I have the 918's and demo'ed a few cables over the past year. The best were the new Synergistic Research Accelerators speaker cables. The Cable Company will loan them to you to try.I could not believe how these new cables transformed my sy... 
Shunyata cables vs Nordost Frey
I have auditioned the Shunyata cables and found they had a big soundstage and were very neutral but dry and little bright. Then I got the Synergistic Tesla Accelerators. They are as fast as the Nordost plus nicely warm, musical and the tightest ba... 
What is the order of rel subs?

Focal JM Lab
Everything sounds bright at Tweeter. I bought Focal JM Lab Profile 918 speakers, which I auditioned in Tweeter. I ended up finding them on A-gon for 1/2 price so I snatched them up. At home, my room is acoustically treated and I also have better s... 
On Rel subs: Which are most musical?
Hi furseth2, What power cable are you using on your B3? I have a B3 and I am just curious. Also, do you like the power cord? Thanks! 
What subwoofers are suited 4 audiophiles
Rel B3. TAS reviewed it in August 2006 and gave it subwoofer of the year. I have one and it completly disappears. They seldom come up here on A-gon. That is where I got mine. 
MJ Acoustics Subwoofers v. REL.
Here is a link to an Audiogon member who tried MJ subs in their system and compares them to Rel and Velodyne.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?cspkr&1141066212&openflup&36&4#36 
MJ Acoustics Subwoofers v. REL.
I have not heard any of the MJ Acoustics subs. But I have the REL B3 and Synergistic Research Rel Spec Phase II X2 cable. The B3 is very musical and blends seamlessly in my system. It easily disappears and is very detailed with lots of control and...

If I had all that cash, I would probably do the same thing as Ginas.....Enough dreaming and back to my desk job and reading about CES on the internet all day. Sigh... I hope my boss does not read this.Tonight: Listen to my $4,000 speakers which I ... 
Need a good high-pass Xover for Sonus REL
Bob, you just don’t get it. I have read most of your posts. And I disagree as do many others here on Audiogon to your electronic crossover solution. I don’t think you ever answered the question "Have you ever heard a REL subwoofer?" and configured... 
REL is dead. Long live REL
TAS magazine gave the Rel Britannia B3, subwoofer of the year 2006! And I agree. I own one and its great! Upgrade the Neutrik connector to a Signal Cable or even better Synergistic Research. 
Applications for Shunyata Hydra ?
Try a PS Audio regenerated power supply if you do not have dedicated outlets. There is much information on their products here. 
Utopia Micros + Sub vs. Utopia Divas vs. Merlin
If you use a Rel Sub you will not need pre-amp outputs. This is because the connection is made directly to your amp. I have a Rel Britannia B3 and it blends very smoothly with my JM Lab - Focal Profile 918's. I researched many subs and there are l... 
Krell FPB300 - mechanical transformer noise.
Did you e-mail Jim Ludoviconi he is the Assistant Vice President of Sales and Marketing & Director of Technical Support. He seemed to answer all my Krell questions very knowledgably.
