Tekton Double Impacts @kdude66 and @333jeffery Thanks for your thoughts on the matter. Good to see that both of you give a nod to Marc Tunis. BTW Kenny, this is one of the most elegant ways I have seen the topic broached! :) "I quess I will bite on this cable sub... | |
Tekton Double Impacts Throwing this out there again. Any advice and recommendations on speaker cables? Those that you are happy with currently with the DIs or other Tekton speakers, or those you have been pleased with in the past?Thanks. | |
Tekton Double Impacts DIs-orientation. Pretty much order of the day, for me. :) Imagine what big brother Ulfberth will sow. | |
Tekton Double Impacts Charles, thanks for pointing that out! I'm enjoying the DIs way too much! : ) | |
Tekton Double Impacts I have been considering a speaker cable change-up. Cerious Tech has been under consideration. Decided to go mainstream and use the Cable Cos. lending program to evaluate the Audience Au24 SX. Any thoughts on Audience or other speaker cabling? Thanks. | |
Tekton Double Impacts @charles1dad You must be getting very excited! Looking forward to hearing more about your single watt explorations. | |
Tekton Double Impacts @waltersalas Walter, that's just terrific to hear! In addition to varied music, I would add that you may be surprised if you rotate through some components, etc. Keep us posted on your adventures. | |
Tekton Double Impacts @corelli Maybe Mike @audioarchon can offer some suggestions and guidance. Can't hurt to give the Melody a go. Sounds like it is on offer at a good price. Minimally, you will be able to get a feel for their build, quality, etc. and if it doesn't ac... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @corelli - I owned the Melody 2A3 integrated and was very happy with it. I cannot comment directly on the AN211.Realize you are not looking at their 845, but as @teajay has pointed out, I also moved away from 845 based amps.. My personal choice, p... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @mofojo Definitely, definitely the Yggdrasil over the Gungnir. | |
Tekton Double Impacts @craigl59: - thanks for your answer on the REW graphs wrt DACs.+1 re. @333jeffery 's nod for the Schiit Yggdrasil...it's what has been on the front end of my system for some time now.+1 re @klh007 re. the Exogal Comet. I've used it to drive the D... | |
Tekton Double Impacts Also, a correction from two posts ago. Had a thought that kept pinging me ... so I looked into it. The NAD M27 is Hypex based, though NAD does add a few ’tweaks’ to the nCore technology.To reiterate: The Moon and SST amps are Class A / B. The Exo... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @craigl59: Can you explain what you mean by " Am finding that the DAC chosen makes a tremendous difference in frequency response, more so than I would have thought."?Thanks.- David. | |
Tekton Double Impacts @mdlofnwhr: +1 on @kdude66 's point on versatility and pairings.I haven't heard of (or remember of) one amp from any of the Double Impact owners across various forums that has been problematic in terms of pairing with and driving the Double Impact... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @pbhotel: -The Double Impacts ’sensitivity to equipment’ as you put it, is 100% on point.-I was one of those (you mention) being surprised by the air ’being moved’ (and energy) of the mid drivers.A lot of great info in your post. Thanks. |
