| Tekton Double Impacts @grannyring that deal definitely has my attention. It's within driving distance too.@charles1dad where the heck can I find find pricing on First Watt without having to stagger into a brick and mortar and arm wrestle sales people?@teajay I wish t... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Great info group. Thanks! I have much research to do. It will be 50/50 Audio/HT. I am considering the new Outlaw Atmos preamp that is suppose to be available this year. I also looked at the Emotiva XMC-1 but have heard they've had troubles with so... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I would like to upgrade several pieces in front of my DIs. I'd like advice on a SS 2-Ch power amp. I don't want to invest in the level described in the amps discussed here. I have a Denon 4520 Receiver now and will be investing in an Atmos Pre-Pro... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts As far as presentation with my DIs in my room, the lunatic in Dark Side of the Moon is standing behind your left shoulder. I've startled a couple of people with that effect. And that's driving them with a SS Receiver. If the imaging of the Ulfs su... | |
| “Invest” in Tekton? @la10slgr I am a DI owner. Basically bought them to prove to myself they weren't all hype, but never thought they would displace my much loved B&W 804s. They did. They are superior in all aspects. I was surprised. I am now, in fact, going to s... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @david_ten actuallly Kathryn did asked what I was going to do with the 804s the DIs displaced. But mom wasn't letting those leave the house. They displaced some floor standing 6 series B&Ws I had in the family room. The 804s are very nice look... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts david_ten I can't leave well enough alone. Told my daughter I was upgrading to the SE version and she said they BETTER sound as good as these! I assured her she would again get an A/B audition and I could return either set. No pressure! | |
| Tekton Double Impacts The longer this thread goes, the more unworthy I feel to own the DIs with my crummy signal path and lousy taste in music. My 28 year old daughter was here all weekend and continues to enjoy the DIs. We enjoyed a few hours listening and I'm pretty ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Bleachers has a new release called "Gone Now". I doubt it fits many folks taste on this thread (my daughter claims I'm 60 going on 14) but tracks 5 and 6 will totally expose the dynamics and imaging of DIs. I am enthralled. Now I do have a DIY sea... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts david_ten I have no more information than what Eric posted earlier copied below. All I can add is he is definitely moving forward with them. I was given 4-6 weeks to ship at this point. I currently have the DI with the upgrade package. The SEs are... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? New Bleachers release. Gone Now. If you want to test the imaging and dynamics of your system, play tracks 5 and 6. Very well produced released in my opinion. Thoroughly enjoying it. I would attend the tour but would probably be asked if I came wit... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I am returning the DIs I have now for a new set of DI SE. As I understand they are totally different hardware. So I assume it wouldn't be possible to retrofit an existing DI set. Want to buy my old set? Not even a fingerprint on them and Eric may ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I ordered an upgrade set of the Double Impact SE today with a center channel. 4-6 weeks to ship Eric tells me. I'll post a review when I get them sorted out. I believe I'll have one of the first sets. At this point I'm trying to imagine how they c... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts On the 4/8 ohm question, in conversations with Eric, he REALLY dislikes the idea of 8 ohm. His stance is, old technology and if you have an amp that requires it, you should replace it. He says his 4 ohm should be fine with any well designed tube a... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I've never had less that a 7.1 since we built the house with the HT so I really can't say if there is a huge difference with the 5.1. Maybe I'll shut down the rears and see. But my opinion is, at least in my environment, that 7.1 is enough and hav... |
