Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo, How fortunate you are. You can't go wrong with either of the two amplifiers, nice!Charles | |
Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo,Good grief, sorry to hear about your troubles with this particular vendor. I hope it all works out in your favor ultimately. Well in terms of power amplifier selection you are certainly at two polar ends of a broad spectrum (wattage and t... | |
Tekton Double Impacts Jcarcopo, I have a gut feeling that you're going to be very happy with your new speakers. Will you listen to them with both the Art Audio amplifier and the Lyngdorf or is the Art Audio gone now? Either way congratulations. Best wishes, Charles | |
Best balanced linestage/preamp for $4000 or less ??? The McInTosh C47 certainly offers a myriad of input options, flexibility and features. I would be surprised if it offers the tonal purity, resolution, transparency, openness and musical nuance as the Atma-sphere MP-3. Just my opinion. Charles | |
Best balanced linestage/preamp for $4000 or less ??? OP,I believe you'll find the MP-3 a very satisfying high quality preamplifier. Charles | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Ctsooner,Yes we all have come across audio components that we find consistently very good sounding and we like to share this with others. I don’t question that Audiotroy finds the T+A DAC sounds impressive. However rarely do I find the following ... | |
Tekton Double Impacts Hi Tom,I am nappy to know that the EML XLS worked out for you. It’s a superb tube IMO. Your audio system is very high resolution and you have an excellent 300b SET amplifier. Given this I was confident you’d easily hear the attributes of this tube... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Joe,I know that you live in the NYC area and very likely have access to hear the T+A DAC 8. If you do get an opportunity to hear this or the Denafrips Terminator please share your listening impressions. When people write comments such as "We have... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hi Joe,Have you heard the Denafrips?Will it replace your PS Audio DS?You have very good ears and taste, thus my curiosity 😊Matt,I look forward to your Lampizator Pacifica/Davinci DAC comparison. I suspect this will be a very enjoyable and informa... | |
Best balanced linestage/preamp for $4000 or less ??? Spectral and Ayre are transistor and OP expressed desire for tube preamplifier. A used Atma-sphere MP-3 is excellent in terms of the sound quality, built quality, reliability and customer service. A very compelling component. Charles | |
power I agree with Mr. Garcia in both concept (First Watt/quality) and practically. Charles | |
Tekton Double Impacts The reviewer makes his comparative points so clearly and openly, it seems he’s trying to be very diplomatic toward B&W without appearing to denigrate it relative to the Tekton. He suceeded.😊Charles | |
Tekton Double Impacts Listening to Steve’s Tekton review comments I did not infer that he leans toward a "colorful " sounding speaker. In comparison to the B&W 705SE he seems to find the 705 SE good in a "B&W way" implying a specific brand sound signature. It s... | |
Thad Jones "A Child Is Born" absolutely a beautiful classic written by Thad. Pepper Adams (Baritone Saxophone) did a wonderful cover of this song as have many others.Mitch, Navarro had some very nice sessions with Tadd Dameron. He was a superb Bop trumpeter.... | |
Thad Jones Hi Mitch, Yes I truly understand your point. No matter how much jazz music listening and exposure there's still someone new to discover. I have a pretty good size collection of jazz recordings but not as large as yours.You are so right in that t... |
