Tekton Double Impacts @james_w514 Thanks. That's understandable. I'm all about blocking the light...but that's likely because of the heat it generates the ~1000 or so miles south of you! : ) | |
Tekton Double Impacts @vitop Vito, thanks and I very much understand since your are bringing in so many speakers.I'm just curious about the rationale of folks who have gone with the Ulf Minis vs the Ulfs, since most are purchasing sight unseen and sound unheard. Size... | |

Tekton Double Impacts @vitop It's a very good question. And I plan to find out much more specifically, when I bring the M27 back in. It will be a good test for me.These things / differences are about preferences and experiences. And they uniquely become more about us ... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @evolvist and @bullitt5094 Great to hear Bullitt's system is coming together. Looking forward to hearing more about the SEs once they are fully run-in.@vitop I'm pleased with the NAD M27. And it is frustrating that it is sitting idle while I wai... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @evolvist I mentioned bringing the M27 in as a check, in case it was beneficial for @333jeffery to get a baseline for Class D. I believe @333jeffery is playing at a level far above the M27. : ) : ) : ) | |
