| Tekton Double Impacts @corelli - I owned the Melody 2A3 integrated and was very happy with it. I cannot comment directly on the AN211.Realize you are not looking at their 845, but as @teajay has pointed out, I also moved away from 845 based amps.. My personal choice, p... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @mofojo Definitely, definitely the Yggdrasil over the Gungnir. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @craigl59: - thanks for your answer on the REW graphs wrt DACs.+1 re. @333jeffery 's nod for the Schiit Yggdrasil...it's what has been on the front end of my system for some time now.+1 re @klh007 re. the Exogal Comet. I've used it to drive the D... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Also, a correction from two posts ago. Had a thought that kept pinging me ... so I looked into it. The NAD M27 is Hypex based, though NAD does add a few ’tweaks’ to the nCore technology.To reiterate: The Moon and SST amps are Class A / B. The Exo... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @craigl59: Can you explain what you mean by " Am finding that the DAC chosen makes a tremendous difference in frequency response, more so than I would have thought."?Thanks.- David. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @mdlofnwhr: +1 on @kdude66 's point on versatility and pairings.I haven't heard of (or remember of) one amp from any of the Double Impact owners across various forums that has been problematic in terms of pairing with and driving the Double Impact... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @pbhotel: -The Double Impacts ’sensitivity to equipment’ as you put it, is 100% on point.-I was one of those (you mention) being surprised by the air ’being moved’ (and energy) of the mid drivers.A lot of great info in your post. Thanks. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @cmss2000: Thanks for sharing more about your reasons for moving in the direction you did. Are you still considering a possible replacement to your Dunlavys? If so, any prospects? | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @cmss2000:Echoing @corelli - Also what you compared it with and your system, room etc.? And what you were looking for?It's always good to learn from those who have a different result and preferences. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @baranyi : Surely you mean 'carry them away.’ : ) | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @mofojo It isn't straightforward. Go to the Explore Tab. Hit the member lookup link to the left of this window. Type in the member name. Click on result link that matches the member name you want. This should put you in the page that offers a sen... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @cal3713 : Why are you "scared a bit by Coincident discontinuing the remote version." ? Thanks. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @charles1dad : Thanks. Good to get a strong second opinion from you on Backert Labs. I will look into the Dan Sachs Preamp.Any others on Preamp choices? | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Options on choices for a stand alone 2ch Preamp / linestage???This is in service of the Double Impacts in 2ch and HT mode. Plus some additional component integration. Budget is 5.5K tops, but I very much prefer that the purchase comes to no more ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hello Charles, Thank you. That's quite an endorsement!Yes, the limited functionality is a concern. They introduced a RC version with a single volume pot, briefly. There is one on offer here at Agon. But Israel feels this version detracted slightl... |
