Zu Omen or Tekton Lore

Thanks!

I'm going to be ordering my Lore's in the next week or two and am wondering what types of amps or integrated amps,tube or SS, are optimal for the Lore. I currently have a Rogue 90 amp and Krell KSA 50S amp. My preamp is an Eastern Electric Minimax and I just bought the Lightspeed attenuator to try.If I have 2K used in my amp/pre setup how would that money be better spent to find an optimum amp/pre for the Lore's?

Mlg, a full review is in order once you receive them. Also, I would be interested in the sonic difference between the Lore's with your current cables and with the new cables. I think the gloss white will look great. I would not worry about resale value too much. I'm sure if people keep buying the lores up, they may jump a bit in price but, stay well below the Omens. My business got so busy, I had to raise prices to keep up with demand.

Mlg - I can send some pics of my Lores in Satin white if you want. Email me. Very clean look. As far as internal cable, I went with Van Den Hul C12, 12 awg internal wire, but I am sure 4TC is fine. You may want to stay with what you like to use for sc's, that is if you can stick with something. Most of us jump around.

Just to answer a few posts back: the Lore does not have a "house sound." It sounds exactly like what you feed it with. It's quite amazing in that way. If you get them and they sound warm/bright, it is due to what is upstream.

I recommend tubes all the way with these. I am using Quicksilver Mini Mites - a great match!!

Thanks for the ideas guys. I will let you know what I think of the Lores. Also, I see that Gpowered is using Quicksilver Mini Mites and Zmanastronomy is using Almarro A318B's. Any idea how the two compare and what types of music each favors? Eric likes EL34 tubes for the Lores. I currently use Manley Retro's with 2 paralell 300B's per channel which may also work well on the Lores. Thanks for any comments.
