| What do audiophiles do in their cars? First thing I did to my 2015 911 GTS was to upgrade the sound. Kline headers and IPE cat back exhaust was like upgrading to TEKTON Speakers and $3k isolation platforms!!!!! ;)Better sound than anything on this forum. | |
| Node 2i and $1k DAC or Cambridge CXN V2? I don’t go off of reviewers thoughts on how something sounds but the whole experience he had was enough to scare me off. The fact they were giving him one for free for the review tells me enough. | |

| Node 2i and $1k DAC or Cambridge CXN V2? You're right.....I ordered the Cambridge unit and will try it against my Node 2i with modius to see how I like it. If they sound comparable then I'll get a better DAC and try that too. | |
| Interesting experience with two very different speaker designs millercarbon11,408 posts10-18-2021 2:54pmOpen baffle puts a lot of energy out the back side of the speaker. This contributes to that spacious 3D sound. Eric just added a new Signature Series model with two drivers on the back for just this reason.... | |
| Vintage speaker suggestions Was about to say Klipsch Hersey I or II and a sub but not so sure with that music but I think the heresy is one of the best deals out there. | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review @stringreen very funny you should say that. I now drive a 2015 991.1 GTS convertible. Not as good in the snow as the old wrx ;) | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review @jjss49 ha! That was 20 years ago almost, I had the first big eye version. | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review @millercarbon i think this shows that as long as you don’t talk about Tekton and /or Eric as being the lord and savior, then you can have a normal conversation about the speakers. The other topic of a guy looking for $20-$30k speakers and people s... | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review Thanks @ozzy62 Phono is a Schiit Mani. I totally agree the turntable would be a big improvement but I didn’t even listen to vinyl when first listening to the speakers. DAC will probably be my next upgrade. | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review I've heard though that the voltage gain stage (right side of the 4 tubes) is the one that makes the biggest difference and that's where I have the Treasures. | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review Thanks @jjss49 I appreciate it.You guys might be onto something, I went with the Treasure CV181-Z because they were said to add a bit more in the highs and that's what I needed with the Spatials, forgot about that.......Might try replacing those, ... | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review I've already tube rolled the Freya +Shuguang Treasure CV181-Z & Tung Sols is where I ended up at for now......the stock JJ's were way too veiled and tubey? I guess that's a word ;) | |
| Tekton Double Impact Review tvad11,166 posts10-14-2021 6:09pmTerrific, thoughtful review. Thank you.Some, if not most, of the speakers’ brightness you mention will improve as you improve your front end, and power delivery. The great news is your speakers are a strong element... | |
| $2000 Tektons, which one for my use? I would sell the receiver, buy a used Set of speakers for $1,500 and then buy an integrated meant for 2 channel listening. |
