REL Gibralter G2 a good choice?
KL Audio makes ultrasonic RCMs. Have they started making subs ? If so, has anyone compared them to JL Audio ? 
REL Gibralter G2 a good choice?
REL is a great choice. Easy to integrate, the G2 has a remote. Depending on your room size you may want to explore a 2nd G2 down the road.BestPradeep 
Sutherland PHD Question - Yellow LED blink right..
Many years back had a similar problem except in my case the PhD refused to shut down. There is a thread on Agon about this. It's a handshake problem and try a different interconnect between the phono and the TT.BestPradeep 
Have you found reliable online used vinyl vendors?
Have often bought used from Acoustic Sounds. Invariably found the condition is as stated. OTH my solo LP purchase on Amazon - Stones " Goats Head Soup" is almost unplayable.Best 
Add a second sub or...
It really depends on your priorities. Cleaner records or a more balanced and deeper foundation for the music. I am sure there are many who disagree with me but IMHO 2 subs should be mandatory for a stereo set up. I have the Spin Clean and earlier ... 
Ideal Sub pairing for Quad 2805s
Used a pair of REL 505s and later the G1s with the 2905s.Highly recommended 
Do you run a high end power cord on your sub?
To return to the OP. I would never go and buy an "allegedly superior" pc for a sub. However, as and when the pcs on the main components are upgraded the hand me down pcs , Transparent entry models in my case, end up with the HT and the subs. All m... 
Best Subwoofer for Quad 2805 under $5k
I have used a pair of REL 505s and later the G1s with great success with the Quad 2905s. Superb subs, easy to blend as the G1s have a remote. 
Of all your gear, what piece impresses you most?
In my case it's a no brainer: the Wavac HE 833 V2 150 wpc SET mono blocs. Outrageously beautiful in sound and looks. 
Blade vs S5 vs Avior vs Hansen's Prince E's
Avior was my choice and would unhesitatingly recommend the same one year down the road 
Kl Audio LP200 ultrasonic record cleaner insights
BillGood question. I do not use the Spin Clean on new LPs. If you have garage sale condition records with surface grime , I find it beneficial to do a first clean with the Spin Clean followed by a 5 min cycle in the KLAudio. 
Kl Audio LP200 ultrasonic record cleaner insights
Count me as another immensely satisfied owner. It's been 4 months since the KLAudio arrived and it's a real pleasure to use. Combined with a Spin Clean , it's a complete cleaning system with no messing with cleaners/liquids.

Hi PhilThanks for looking. The Aviors have the CJ GAT pre and a pair of Wavac HE 833 V2 SET mono blocs for company. The Wavacs were never on the horizon but I am delighted it worked out. More details and pics on my system page. I am in the happy s...
