Pro -AudioI just went through a journey like yours . I tried a set of DI's, and could not get to "where I was going" with them. A couple pages back, I wrote up a review and posted my likes and dislikes. I seriously looked at GE. But being a Union ... 
Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to?
AudiotroyWe bought them off of Morrow Audio in Ky. We live on SE Ohio. Powered by a ATI 6005 Signature Amp ( 450 @4ohm X5) and a Marantz 8801. As soon as the 8805 comes out, my intentions are to modernize. The issue I had with Tekton was clarity i... 
Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to?
After my Tekton review a few weeks back over on the main thread, many have asked me to let them know what I moved on to . I finally made my choice. To be honest, Sue made the choice. I just wrote the check .. We decided on a pair of Legacy Focus S...

Al Everybody that has ever been to a 3 hour rock concert, or a drag, circle, or road course race ( Like Nascar)  ...just flunked. I'm assuming you do none of these . We are not all built alike.. Cigarettes,lack of seat belts and helmets, obesity ....
