| I heard the $4000 Focal Utopia Headphones yesterday The Focal Utopias are worth it, as are other TOTL headphones. | |
| Adding a DAC @jfd11 : You are welcome! Always fun to tinker and adjust approaches...and good from a learning perspective as well.Let us know what you do and what your results are.And all the best with your health. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @craigl59: That's terrific! You are welcome.@vitop: The Double Impacts come pre-threaded for the included spikes. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @mac48025: The DIs are elevated by 2.75 inches to their base in my application (probably only marginally higher than spikes, unless they spikes are on carpeting).I recently came across some comments on one of the general Tekton threads/forums abo... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @craigl59: There are comments from various members on this thread around 4/15 4/16 as well as on 4/25 regarding their results with Herbie's sliders and other isolation products they have used with the Double Impacts as well as other components/s... | |

| Tekton Double Impacts @333jeffery: Thank you!!! That's what I thought. How close would you say you are to the 'stage' with the Ulfberths? If I remember correctly, your seating position is about 10 feet from the speakers. | |

| “Invest” in Tekton? @la10slgr: Congratulations. Great news about your room! Looking forward to your impressions and evaluation of the Double Impacts (I believe that is what you went with, correct?). |
