Tekton Double Impacts
Brian,If you enjoy the fundamental qualities of you current electronics I can tell you that the DI's will let that shine through.  Can't imagine a "problem" that you will encounter-so I would not let that concern hold you back at all. 
Tekton Double Impacts
brotw,The advice I would give is simple--trust your ears! While I'm sure there are some valid points made in this guide, I for one would never listen to my DI's up against the front wall.  Yes, you will have gains in low end extension at the cost ... 
Tekton Electon/DI compares to what?
Agreed  Walter.   It amazes me that people have nothing better to do with their time than torch a given brand at every opportunity.  Imagine reading the thousands of posts on the DI thread just waiting for that perfect moment to inject some venom.... 
Are you seeing more 9/10s?
No  I won't "lighten up"Audiogon criteria are very clear and objective.Just bought a "near mint" piece that was a 7/10.  Told the seller to renegotiate price or take it back.  We renegotiated.When I sell my gear it's graded exactly with full discl...

I'll be curious to see how your search for an amp turns out mac.  You are wisely taking your time.I think it's great that several A'gon members have shared their amps in an effort to help others find an amp that suites their needs.  One more examp...

Mac,Unless I missed it, never knew you had tried the Blackhawk with your DI's.   That amp or the Osprey were among my finalists.  Sorry to hear that did not work out--and perhaps glad I did not go with that.  Was the noise there at your normal lis...

greg,Not gonna say we told you so, but....Glad you are happy with your new DI's.  Just think, with break in they will even be a bit better!  Glad this thread helped  
Tekton Double Impacts
Perkri,If your question is how do the DI's compare to the VSA VR-33's I can shed some light on that as I own both.  The 33's took forever to break in--almost sent them back.  But after 300hr they evolved into a very nice speaker.  Easy to drive, t...

Maybe.........  Alright, sot it's got more than six tubes! 
Tekton Double Impacts
After a rather complicated Audiogon transaction, I finally  have some glowing glass and steel in house.  It's currently driving a pair of VSA VR-33's.  This is the best amp I've had driving these speakers.  Very nice air and detail, paints a big p... 
Wine, audio, and music. How many of us Aphiles enjoy wine when listening to music?
Interesting.  I find a glass of wine increases my focus on the music.  Nor have I ever had the urge to doze off. 
Current speaker threads are boring
No offense taken Tim.  By the way, that was my bicycle mileage.  It's interesting how many fellow A'gon members are bike rides of both sorts.Yes, I know we DI owners are an enthusiastic bunch.  But for good reason I think. 
Current speaker threads are boring
mr mLove my DI's.  Have ridden my bike 2100 miles so far this summer.  Working on landscaping all this summer.  Have kept fish for 50 years.  Have two other hobbies.  You should see my orchids.Several other guys on the DI thread with similar backg... 
Current speaker threads are boring
I'd post but I'm too bored. 
I guess I have to sell my Tekton Enzos
I would caution potential Tekton buyers not to confuse Eric's personality with the quality of his speakers.Before I purchased my DI's I did take exception to some of the claims he made for his speakers.  He certainly will speak his mind and at tim...
