| Tekton Double Impacts Al,youre a marvel. Thanks yet again for explaining something I couldn't previously conceive in a manner that I understand. Charles,teajay mentioned he is using the holy grail of 6sn7 tubes. Maybe that accounts for him being able to drive the micro... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Color me shocked......but I'm ordering a MZ2-S soon along with some NOS Tungsol Black Oval Plate 6SN7 tubes. Over 100 db? That's much louder than I need. Can you imagine a reference level pre/amp/speaker system for less than $6K total? Hopefully m... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thanks for the update teajay. Like Charles I'm surprised the 4 ohm DI's could be driven by 1 watt. I'll have to give it a try though. I find my 24 watt Decware to sound sublime for 95% of my listening but crave more volume for live recordings. Gue... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Mike of Audio Archon,The Tektons must have the threaded spike holes filled or bass will escape through them and as you found out they don't sound very good. I made the same mistake with my first pair as it's easier moving them without the spikes. ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts David,Both Terry and Michael have given you excellent advise on speaker placement. Sounds like you have things pretty well worked out. For me about 5 1/2' apart has worked best with my listening position about 6 1/2' back. I was quite surprised ha... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Mike,please se keep us posted on your LTA MZ2-S / DI SE prototype combination. I have the the DI's and love them and will be getting the MZ2-S and ZOTL 40 as soon as I'm able. Being able to drive the DI's with just the MZ2-S until I can get the ZO... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Sounds like you're getting the same color I have teajay.....Mercedes Diamond Black. The metal flake is quite subtle and can only be seen with good lighting. It's a cool color. Lance, that's exactly the type of floor mine are on. I initially used t... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I was going to go with the soundofthecity outriggers but went with Herbie Audios Giant threaded gliders instead. Great isolation, stability and easy to move and level. Sounds similar to the feet you're using corelli. Great minds think alike! You t... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts An integrated LTA? That's very intriguing. Please keep us posted if you find anything further out. | |
| Tekton Electron has been released Thanks grannyring. Maybe I'll just try my hand at re-doing the wiring for now. I already have the Duelund wire. Thanks for your input.Yeah lowrider, I realize it would void the warranty but it's a chance I'm willing to take. In all the years I've ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts While this thread, and many others here, is very informative......it's also quite enabling! Not that most of us needed much encouragement to pursue new equipment. Me thinks there's definitely a LTA MZ2-S in corelli's future ......and in mine. Like... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts corelli........join the club. Buying the DI's was just the beginning. Since getting mine every single improvement made to my system has been clearly portrayed by the DI's and can only imagine what adding the LTA MZ2-S and ZOTL 40 will bring. Like ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Wolf, you keep insisting that a fuse CAN'T effect sonics? Why not? Doesn't AC quality do so? Don't quality power cords do so? Why not the spot where all that AC current is condensed into a frail wire designed to disintegrate upon too much amperage... | |
| Tekton Electron has been released Roxy54, the DI's are the most transparent speakers I've owned and reproduce vocals better also. I've owned Legacy Focus SE's, Magneplanar 1.7i's, Revel Salons, Magneplanar 3.6 and Vandersteen 1, 2ce and 3a's. I had someone over today who owns Zu's... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Thanks Al, I didn't mean to imply that you didn't think it was at least possible fuses couldn't improve sound, I only called upon you because those that keep saying it isn't possible won't answer and I knew you would provide an informative and bal... |
