Once you go 300b it’s hard to go back?
Find a good dealer and do a trial with a Lyngdorf 2170. It isn’t a class A, B or D. It’s it’s own class. As close to a wire with gain as you will experience. But if you like tube distortion, don’t bother. You won’t hear it from the Lyngdorf. Feed ... 
high-efficiency loudspeakers
I had B&W 804s. I thought those were efficient. Then I got the Tekton DI upgrades. Made the 804s sound bad and inefficient in comparison. I now have the Tekton Ulfs. More efficient and even better sounding than the DIs. I think I've slain the ...

Oh, and Eric ALSO did the car audio thing. I think his hobby is collecting hobbies too.

mac48025 Subwoofers? Why? Those cars make some of the most beautiful music known to man. LOL 1400 wheel HP at WOT and twin turbos. It's quite the crescendo. But I did compete in IASCA car sound competition with out 1996 Impala SS. Strangely enough...

Oh, and if you have a Hauler, you really are into the money. I am the guy on the cheap with the open trailer behind the F250PSD. Also, Eric was also pretty heavily into drag racing one time. When/if you talk to him again, ask him about it if you t...

Nice!! Car flies. People think Audiophiling is expensive? My wife refers to mine as the black hole in the garage into which we pour money. But she actually enjoys it and is always there with me as pit crew. This is a video of my street legal 2001 ...

@nitrobob, I have a pair of B&W 804s in the same room as the DIs originally and now the Ulfs. After reading all the fluff-up on the DIs on another site, I waved the BS flag on all the folks who were trashing the speaker and had never been in t...

Nitrobob, the Ulfs will do what you want and then some. But Eric developed 1812s specifically to reproduce clean concert level output if you want to go for the ultimate. Hope you have some room in your room!  
Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to?
And +1 on what @greg22lz said above. Just like amp sounds. To each his own. But with the 60 day trial, I would think most would have realized they didn't like them in that time period and returned the speakers rather than buying them to start with.  
Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to?
I'm a former Tekton Double Impact owner. I moved on to Ulfberhts. But I guess technically that doesn't make me a "former" Tekton owner.  
Searching for the most "accurate" speaker (below 15K)
In my listening room I currently have B&W 804s, Tekton Double Impacts and Tekton Ulfberhts. I received the Ulfs about a week ago. I loved the B&Ws for years. Tried the DIs on a whim and they sidelined the B&Ws handily. Ordered the Ulfs...

@lmswjm I have a friend who’s a weight lifter. Not kidding. Really is. We strapped the box to my heavy duty hand truck. He pulled the hand truck up the stairs a step at a time and I lifted from the bottom. Still wasn’t an easy task. He got to pick...

I've figured out how to make the DIs look small. Put an Ulf next to it! Finally got them upstairs last night and in break-in mode. So far, I'm very impressed.

I auditioned the MZ2 with the standard PS and the 10 with the new. upgraded power supply. They were impressive. Thing is, you can buy the upgraded PS for the MZ2 later for what not much more than the upgrade costs initially. So I was going to buy ...

@mac48025 The car in the movie was Dark Highland Green. When they released the first Bullitt Edition Mustang in 2001 they offered it in the original DHG, a medium blue and black. Mine is black because dark green ranks just ahead any shade of yello...
