I have a Rel S/812 and really like it with my Revel Salon 2 speakers. I had been using the stock Rel cable but figured if Rel makes an upgraded cable I should see what else is out there. Transparent was great to work with to create a Super Rel cable to go along with my Super gen 6 speaker cables. My early impression is that the sub utterly disappears. Rel is all about the sub getting the “same sonic signature” as the mains and now it truly is. The sub seems to go deeper and sounds more solid. Definitely an interesting tweak.

Very cool news. This does not surprise me, bass is one of the things my Transparent cabling is great at. I suppose you're using Transparent speaker cabling as well...

Numerous after market options. REL se?ls a 10m "hi level neutrix" upgraded cable for about $600. I personally use Signal Cable. A very robust cable.

Yes I use Gen 6 Super speaker cables. Next to enter the system will be an XL power cord. Every Transparent cable I bring to the system seems to be just a natural fit, which I can't say about all brands.

This is true from my experience. Over as you complete the loom of cables it seems to have a synergy effect 1+1=3...
