Odyssey Stratos- need schematic
Not trying to be a cheapskate. If it's something fairly simple like I think it is I would like to drop it off and pick it up in a few days instead of not being able to have tunes for probably a month.  
Upgrade path from Wilson WattPuppy 7s? - seeking advice
Classic Stereo in Grand Rapids has Paradigms. Little bit of a drive for you.  
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
You never did mention that I saw what kind of music you listen to? Some people say a good speaker should play equally well everything but frankly I find that to be pipe dream. you wouldn't buy Sonus Faber to listen to metal for instance.  
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
I would try an inexpensive EQ. If you like the results get a better one. I had Chorus IIs for a while and they were really dynamic and a whole lotta fun. They definitely needed EQ! I used the Parametric EQ in Amarra. Maybe try a MiniDSP.  
Underspent on speakers relative to overall system?
IMO tube friendly speakers are fairly high efficiency and have a fairly flat impedance curve. The flat impedance is more important IMO. The PL100 has lowish efficiency and lowish non flat impedance.  http://www.soundstagenetwork.com/measurements/s... 
Underspent on speakers relative to overall system?
The biggest potential problem I see with your system is the amplifier and speaker match. They don't exactly seem tube friendly from the specs. Ever tried a warmish ss amp with them? I know many disagree but SS amp and tube preamp I find is a great... 
Tekton Electon/DI compares to what?
Thanks 213. I'm a generous kinda guy. Do they make you sit at the kids table at family reunions?  
Tekton Electon/DI compares to what?
I am in West Michigan in Fruitport. If your ever in the area I would be happy to host.  
Tekton Electon/DI compares to what?
Where are you located? Maybe you could put out the request for someone local to demo for you. I had several offers before I bought my DIs. I went ahead and ordered blind anyway. Quite an eclectic list you have going. I have heard several of them. ... 
Odyssey Kismet Reference or Ascend Acoustics Tower with RAAL Ribbon Tweeter
Passion4audio,Odyssey fan here. How much were the Liquid speakers? Can you give any in depth review on them? Odyssey does not seem to get much action lately. never heard any of their speakers only amps.  
Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering
213 would you like me to copy and paste every unwarranted slanderous thing you have said again?  
Not Enough Options for Auditioning Speakers
I recently heard the Paradigm Persona 3Fs and they are fantastic. Might want to check to see if there is a dealer close. As you said you cannot demo the KEF reference but they are really great as well. I would much prefer these to the Sonus Fabers... 
Tekton Speakers,Who owns them and what did you replace and why.
Ultimate bass extension I would give to the Triton. Mid bass and bass articulation I feel is better on the DIs. Obviously this will be more amplifier dependent on the DI. They are however very easy to drive. The DIs for me feel fuller and more art... 
Tekton Speakers,Who owns them and what did you replace and why.
treebeard1,I owned the Triton 1 for probably 6 months. I liked them quite a bit. Good for a wide range of music. One thing is vocals on tv and movies sounded a bit off at times. Could never really pinpoint what it was. For me the DIs do everything... 
Tekton Double Impacts
The Jolida Fusion Preamp is phenominal for the price. Lots of gain and really musical. Has XLR out but don't think it's truly balanced but not sure.
