Tekton Double Impacts
I emailed Eric several years ago about a design just like the Nebo.  At the time he thought it redundant with some of his other designs. One thing for sure.  This guy is obsessed with creating new speakers. I am sure the Nebo sounds great.  Most... 
Absorption, Diffusion or a combination of it all?
Might depend on what your goal is.  Rooms and acoustic problems are so varied. In my experience, the most valuable place for absorption is in the first reflection points on the side walls and ceiling, and the wall behind my listening chair.  I fo... 
Tekton Double Impacts
As I recall I believe that is the case.  Curious why you ask.  
Furman Elite 15 PFi - just purchased 3-2023
Refreshing to read your post. No one can refute what one hears in ones own system. Just a factual account of what you heard. Sometimes we get buried in theoretical opinions as to why something can or can’t sound good. Thanks for sharing your exper... 
Focal Headphone Repairs?
Upscale audio has great closeout pricing on Focal phones.  After rereading this thread I would never consider them, even at steep discounted prices.  
Better story teller than Edmund Fitzgerald?
P.S.  As a Michigander, I have visited many of the shipwreck sites on the Great Lakes.  Lakes that can conjure up the wrath of our oceans when the weather turns cold.  So Gordon Lightfoot's Edmund Fitzgerald hits close to home.  But I still have ... 
Better story teller than Edmund Fitzgerald?
Another vote for Harry Chapin’s Greatest Stories Live. Listening to this as I type. Not only is it full of musical stories of all sorts, the recording quality is excellent, especially for a live recording. You have to love this double LP.  
FAVORITE POWER CABLE under $100 (1M)
Supra Lorad 2.5 with connectors of your choice. Several nice reviews online you can check out.    
Name 3 songs where audio quality and song quality completely align
While several albums above are favorites of my youth--great albums--they would never make it to the finals in the "demo album" shootout.    
Is Imaging Worth Chasing?
+1 edcyn. For me imaging is crucial.  Consequently, I have a dedicated audio room and everything is set up to maximize this quality.  I don't mind sitting in one place to enjoy my music.  I also do not believe you need to spend "high end" dollar... 
SET amplifier (for AvantGarde Duo's-original) recommendations
I can suggest the Erhard Ray. Listening to it right now. Will come in under way under budget. Dead quiet. Premium transformers. Suggest you wear Depends as you may lose control of bodily functions. 
How long do speakers last?
The surrounds are all rubber on those drivers.  Clarity Cap on the tweeter.  I would worry more about my hearing going bad before the speakers do.  
DIY Amp
Can't imagine this would not fit the bill.    
Do Turntables sound better with time?
And the truth, like most things in life, lies somewhere in between.    
Do Turntables sound better with time?
Most all mechanical things have a break in period. You did not state if you are using the built in phono preamp but that would be another item to consider. How audible are these factors? All depends but seems no reason to doubt what you have noted.
