| Tekton Design Lore - Cronus Magnum II Thanks snapsc.Yes. 100db would be way too loud for me as well. I'm not interested in rattling the windows.I am intrigued by low wattage amps, 300 B, etc. I do not know or have I seen any comments from anyone who has driven these exact speakers wit... | |
| Tekton Design Lore - Cronus Magnum II You can certainly run the Romex from receptacle thru wall and under floor along joists and leave it for the electrician to wire. Yea that was my thought. It’s been a long time since I did anything like that. | |
| Tekton Design Lore - Cronus Magnum II Thanks. Great info.A dedicated line makes perfect sense albeit an expense the other 1/2 might slightly object to. (she's not quite as enthused about my hobby as I) Not a big deal to do this myself but I can hear it now about burning down the house... | |
| Tekton Design Lore - Cronus Magnum II Thanks "Avanti!" Good info. | |
| Tekton Design Lore - Cronus Magnum II Thanks for the response lowrider. I'm aware of ground loops, using cheater plugs, etc. Are you suggesting a dedicated AC line specifically for your stereo system? My last tube amp of course there was a slight hum heard close to the speakers. So t... | |
| Tekton Design Lore - Cronus Magnum II invictus005, what's your problem? | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore Agreed. I'm looking around at amps. I have noticed with the Lores that they seem to enjoy more horse power of UL than Triode although I prefer what I hear with the Triode setting. My fear is buying a so-called "flea amp" and not being able to driv... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore Yes, tweak, tweak, tweak! I've found that I prefer the Lores on the floor, no spikes on a piece of carpet. The furniture in my room is killing me but I have no way around it right now.I also prefer Triode over UL. I too bought the Lores for their ... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore So I ordered a new OPPO UDP-203 on eBay. They are asking over $2k for the 205 & that's a bit rich for me at this point. But I'm wondering now if the UDP-203 audio quality will be as good or better than my current OPPO BDP-95? I'm aware of the ... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore Thanks snapsc. Yes I know the furniture is killing me insofar as acoustics go. I really don't have much leeway in that regard unfortunately. But the DAC isn't really something I even considered. My BDP-95 is ancient but, as you know, it's built li... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore I like that post and I can definitely relate to limiting myself to playing mostly music that sounds good on my system. I suppose we all are guilty on some level to be looking for the speaker or system that plays everything really great. I only hop... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore Perhaps I have a different meaning for "dynamic" sound. For me that has always meant like a 3d sound stage. And this is what I get with the bookshelves. It is easier to place the different instruments in a 3 or 4 piece band dehind the speakers. Th... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore jond, you mention "Gain." Could you please elaborate? | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore Yes, more info.First, in UL there definitely is more "umph" obviously due to 2x watts.Room is 22x15x8.5 with lots of furniture & a heavy carpet covering most of the wood floor. Doorway at end of room at direction speakers are pointing. They ar... | |
| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore I should add that I was hoping the Lores would be somewhat dynamic, maybe not as much as the bookshelves but even on Triode they don't have much of a sound stage. Maybe I'm expecting too much? |
