| Tekton Double Impacts Yes Jonathan, great post.....thanks. While im very happy using my one watt LTA MZ2 to drive my DI's I will add a SET amp to the mix soon. You're so right.....the size of the speaker is of less concern than the size and quality of the amp. The DI's... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts LP,I believe your concern about the DI's being too large for your room is unfounded. They virtually disappear providing a side wall to side wall soundstage and sound equally well at low or high volume levels. Eric also contends that physical size ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Loreena sounds heavenly on my DI's. Along with the Chieftains, the Wailin' Jennys and all my other fav female artists.I don't know what your budget is LP but getting the most expensive Tekton you can afford isn't a bad way to go. I had their Enzo'... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Does that man ( Eric ) ever sleep? He's certainly not one to rest on his laurels. New designs, new speakers, new drivers.......he never rests! The most amazing thing to me is how he makes every speaker sound so good no matter the design......at le... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Soundernm,If it's on the internet it must be true :)I can tell you without hesitation that the majority of those posting about their Tekton experience here are for real......including me! I've had two members from the site come over to hear the DI... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Bullitt,yeah, they take a while to fully break in but after about a hundred hours they start sounding very good. That first hundred hours can be quite interesting as the sound wanders all over the place. You're going to have a very impressive soun... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Bullit,you will love the Odysseys with the DI's......both with music and HT. The dynamics will astound you, the Odyssey really grips the drivers and can produce prodigious sound levels and slam. They can also produce a very musical sound, albeit n... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Bullitt,the reason I recommended Odyssey is that they are very musical and great with home theater also. I had the Kismet Monoblocks and Candela pre until getting bit by the tube bug. The dynamic slam with the Kismets and Tektons was bone jarring.... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Bulllit, have you checked out Odyssey Audio? Great sounding SS gear, well made in the US at very reasonable pricing. You won't be able to get their top of the line Kismets but you should be able to get their Khartago stereo amp. Klaus is a great g... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Can't wait to see pics Lance. That orange should be sweet. More importantly I'm looking forward to your accessment of them. As you know I'm also a user of the Herbies threaded Giant Gliders. They work very well for me. Davids set up is quite inter... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Jeffrey,thanks for the update and please keep them coming. The Ulfberhts must be amazing to better the DI's in bass and detail. I'm not surprised they do as Eric went all out with his best design utilizing the best possible components to create th... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Kenny,youre totally correct regarding the limitations of the MZ. I rarely listen to classic rock and when I do I do so on my SS system. Im with you on using great NOS tubes with the MZ. I'm currently using the TungSol round plates and 40's Mullard... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Yes Kenny, the ZOTL 10.....especially the new, upcoming ZOTL 10 with a new upgraded power supply......was my choice until teajay's experimentation with amps. The LTA MZ2 driving the DI's with its one watt is fantastic but as Teajay mentions, the S... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Charles,If I go that route I'll get the 2A3S FFX with Hashimoto/Sansui transformers. If I can afford them, the Frank's will be in consideration also. I'm also going to visit Andy at Vintage Tube Services in Grand Rapids to check out some vinta... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thanks Teajay, just the kind of input I needed. While it sounds like one couldn't go wrong with either amp the 2A3 sounds like my cup of tea. |
