| Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo,Certainly there’s the Spector of synergy to factor in. Benchmark DAC with your Diavolo is a good match. Perhaps an all Benchmark signal chain is a different story. Numerous variables and possibilities to contemplate as always with audio. ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo,I’ve only heard the Benchmark DAC once and thought the overall system was a bit dry and 2 dimensional. I wouldn’t know how much to attribute to the DAC. A friend of mine who has more familiarity with the Benchmark products feels they are ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo,The Benchmark and Art Audio Diavolo are such different amplifiers I'm curious how they compare sonically. Of course its very possible that you could enjoy both amplifiers equally for what may be contrasting presentations. Now it would... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo,David was right and I was wrong. Given your description of immense joy with the Encores and Diavolo I mistakenly thought you would be content and just enjoy the music. I understand, we all have our unique quests, behavior and personality.... | |
| Wide dispersion + high efficiency + detail + coherence in a speaker? Correction, Trenner Friedl RA Box (darn autospell). | |
| Wide dispersion + high efficiency + detail + coherence in a speaker? Hi Phil,I have the Coincident Total Eclipse II which are no longer in product. I've own them for over 9 years and my happiness with them if anything has grown. It has a simple 1st order crossover and to my knowledge is phase and time coherent. Th... | |

| Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions Fetguy,I don’t believe that the two approaches or mindsets are mutually exclusive by any means. We are discussing electronic devices so it’s undeniable that scientific and engineering principles are utilized and applied. I don’t disregard the nece... | |
| Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions Hi Roxy54,Having read many of your Audiogon posts over the years I'd conclude that you are cut froth same cloth as jcarcopo and I. You relish the beauty of music and view it as a gift to mankind. What a "strange" coincidence that we all happen t... | |
| Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions Jcarcopo,Based on the description of you by fetguy you and I are cut from the same cloth. If you aren’t moved by and engaged with the music and there’s little or no emotional connection then the components in use are inadequate. People listen to m... | |
| Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions Hello fetguy,I appreciate your polite and well reasoned explanation to beme54. With regard to audio it is imperative to view the entire picture rather than focus on a few measurements in isolation. I don’t doubt jcarcopo’s listening impressions or... | |
| Why people says SE is better PP No matter the topology of an amplifier each will have it’s advocates and invariably detractors, no exceptions. SET has been the most satisfying choice for me, yet certainty OTL or class A solid state for others. There’s variation and a hierarchy w... | |
| Line Magnetic 518ia - How Much Heat Does It Produce? Fasten, I looked at your system page, very nice!!Your room has a 10 foot ceiling. 28x20x10 that’s a lot of open cubic space to handle amplifier heat. No doubt that the LM 518a driving the Daedalus speakers is a pure sonic joy. Do you alternate the... |
