| Tekton Double Impacts Anyone wanting speakers quickly and promptly should consider purchasing the Double Impact featured in our standard soft gloss finish (normally black) with the upgraded x-overs. The price is $3300 for the pair and they typically have a 24-48 hour... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts So, I ordered my Mini Ulfs on August 7th (give it the 8th), and I was told by Eric it would take two weeks to ship. I didn’t offer up "two weeks;" Eric did. I sort of knew this would be the case, though. How much longer, on the other hand, is a di... | |
| My Home Speakers, My Car, and Me...The Ballad of What's Going Wrong? +++10 guys! I'm determined to get to the bottom of this. I come from a world of headphones for 35-years, so I'm not exactly a noobie, but when I changed rooms this totally threw me for a loop. My hope is that I find a solution, but also that someb... | |
| My Home Speakers, My Car, and Me...The Ballad of What's Going Wrong? I'm going to try out some acoustic treatment tonight. Technically I could pad the whole friggin' room if I wanted to. I have a fair sized rug that I can put between the speakers and myself for now. Hopefully this will give me a good idea where I'm... | |
| My Home Speakers, My Car, and Me...The Ballad of What's Going Wrong? @yogiboy - But, if one is expecting to get full range speaker quality, with a small room like that, just forget the concept that you'll ever reach the highest of highs and the lowest of lows?These aren't very big speakers. In fact, once could arg... | |
| My Home Speakers, My Car, and Me...The Ballad of What's Going Wrong? Hmmm...thank for the thoughts.So, even with room correction running in software, it's still could not be defeating real, physical room problems?You're right. The room is very hard and bare.My body associates music with relaxation, no matter the st... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @grannyring - It shouldn't be a problem. I once purchased a Chord DAVE in the Czech Republic and took it right on and off the plane. I had to jump through few hoops at customs, but it wasn't a big deal. @lmswjm - I hope those are Vitop's mini-Ulfs... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @teajay - Hey Evolvist,If you can evaluate the overall sound quality of Jeffery's system based on what you hear on that video you have some extraordinary auditory abilities, indeed! I'll call later this morning my editor at hometheatereview.com... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Eric Alexander and his team should be lauded for what they have accomplished. To gain this level of performance is commendable for a speaker at any cost, but at $3,000??? It should have been interesting, sitting around the Tekton board-room ta... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts A new video of the Ulf's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp41geKe4zg Thank you! Such an important piece of prog! "Pictures at an Exhibition."The think that strikes me about this video that even captured on a non-audiophile device (I'm assuming... | |
| Tekton Double Impact phase issues? @trytone - Who is the dealer for Tekton in Houston? Well, I know Dave at Raven Audio a bit outside of Houston, proper, otherwise I wouldn't have a clue.Are the Liszt speakers in Houston, too? If so, I've heard those. heh. They wouldn't hold a can... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Since I have nothing better to do, taking the measurements of the mini-Ulf into consideration, I mapped out my room for standard triangle configuration.I’ve got 2.5ft off of the front wall. 2ft off of the side walls. From center to center of the s... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Yeah, see? How could Jeffrey *not* be offended? It would have been better to ask, "Hey, Jeffery, that's pretty close to the walls; how is your sound? Have you considered placing them in other places in your room, or are you even able to?"Futher di... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @teajay - It saddens me that this proud owner of these very special speakers will not really hear the magic of what the Ulf's can do if placed in the correct position in the right sized room. Are you familiar with the Sumiko method that I linke... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts weird. |
