Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
Guys heard the Tektons at 2 different setups they are on the warm side of neutral not a bad thing they do not have the treble detail of an amt or ribbon type tweeter but compared to many speakers  which can be too anaylitical Eric did a fantastic ... 
Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
Charles1Dad you are missing my point, that what the amps Mac had might not have worked well on the Legacys and were better suited to the Tektons.Also the Legacy's have a more detailed top end if you prefer a more rich midrange oriented sound then ... 
A visit to the (Audio) Doctor
mastercylinder,Yes a salesman's job is to sell but  that is a crude understatement.In reality it is to help guide and provide data to enable the person to discover for themselves what qualities in what product is going to make the purchaser the ha...

Equi=core 1200 OR Equi=tech 1R OR Isotek EVO3 Aquarius
I don't know if this may help, and we are an Isotek dealer so we are a bit biased. With that being said: only the Isotek has a number of features that can make a very large difference in a system.All three units will block noise and create a more ... 
New York HiFi Show: Tubes and Turntables
EBM totally agreed Chester sucks. They said they had some sponership on WBGO I wonder what that meant.Seeing the same old faces is both great and horrifying. One person commented that they say no one under 40 yikes!The industry is doing a piss poo...

New York HiFi Show: Tubes and Turntables
Guys as a dealer participating at this and other shows here is some perspective.The show was smallPart of the problem is the lack of business being generated and the high costs to do a show.Show promoters are doing a terrible job of bringing notic...

StuarikYou really need to go and try to hear some of your possible contenders.I think what many of the add a sub guys are failing to notice is your speakers look to be from 1998 if this is the case of course loudspeakers from today will offer more...

Power line conditioners- to use or not to use? That is the question?
Paul 8060 I would not buy that combo the NAD M32 is too forward with the Focals you need a warmer amp.As per the power conditioner argument we had taken systems which were good and made them great by adding good power conditioning.A good power con...
