Tekton Speakers,Who owns them and what did you replace and why.

WASAPI vs. ASIO on Windows10?
I agree with you as I hear no difference between the two.  I think both drivers are designed to bypass the PC's internal audio circuitry and let the audio software communicate directly with the connected external audio device.  What makes it an ea... 
What is the best way to tame a slightly bright speaker?

Drink of choice for serious listening?
For really critical listening I indulge in Boone's Farm Apple Wine and unfiltered Camels.Not really.  I usually drink Titos vodka and club soda with a lime twist and a toke or two of some good indica.Cheers! 
Rythmik L12 or F12
On the Rythmik website, there's also something called the F12-300.It seems this sub has a less powerful amp with fewer tuning options, but it says nothing about the driver.  The photo looks like the same driver as the F12.  I wonder if it is?

Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
Mitch2 said: "Ok, just so I am clear, what if the prior owner did in fact use the same make and model amp but.......different speakers???"Everything has to be the same for your special speaker wires to perform as if they are "burned in". Amp, spea...
