| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore I haven't found the need for a Zobel network,even at 18 to 20 watts per channel the impedance curve seems pretty stable to me.Possibly due to the non inductance resisters,internal cabling and upgrade caps presenting a better over all presentation.... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Floosh, I recommended the Little Dot because of it's price point the Jolida was a bit more expensive.You do have a point,but your cable tweek was a very small reason for my rant.I have just been overwhelmed lately by some of the ridicules claims m... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Tubes do make a noticeable difference,and even the difference between UL and triode can be very different and we could go into an amp being anolitical or even very warm.And once more I was painting with to broad a brush to make a finer point.So th... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Floosh, How would rolling different amps change the abilitys or voicing of the speakers.An amplifier at it's best game just sends a louder signal identical match from the source with out any additional information.If the source is great, or it suc... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore The Lores fresh off the boat and right out of the box are dynamic,warm and offer reasonable sound stage but lack refinement through no fault in there drivers, cabinet or design.They are limited only by price point.Spend a little more money on them... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Scuttlflux, Your talking apples and oranges.Both your maggies and Martin Logans are Electrostatic plainersa very different sounding animal compaired from the acoustic suspension driver world.And you left out the very best example of Electrostatics... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore The stock tubes sound great they are reissue Tung Sols.It also likes EI's and 1950 RCA black plates. NOS tube prices have gone insane in the last couple years so stay with reissues if you don't happen to have some vintage tubes from years back lay... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore It is even more clear to me then ever that the Lores can become as revealing as any high end speaker.After listening to different DAC's both at home and in a Boutique audio store on speakers with much higher price tags,I am even more impressed wit... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Im breaking in a new Jolida FX tube DAC I searched through my old stock of 12AX7's and rolled some tubes at this point it seems to like the early 90's Ei's.It is sonicly very similar to the Little Dot DAC 1 and DAC Majic just smoother.I'm sure it ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Even if someone else builds your crossover,it is soldered to the speaker terminals.Practice soldering and find a mentor(maybe a local HAM amateur radio operator) to guide you.If you are going to live in the world of HiFi learn to solder and use a ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore You will like them,but if you do not have good soldering skills and the ability to draw a diagram before you disassemble, so you can reassemble with the new upgrade parts. Then get someone who dose to help you and do it all at the same time.Rememb... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Your DAC choice will have a far bigger impact than any pair of cables.I would look at the Little Dot DAC from China in your price range.Why? because of the huge tiroidal transformer and Wolfson chip not to mention the way Sword Yang carefully impl... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Well, after a week of album rolling with the new binding posts I can make a final comment on the Lores ability to preform with upgrades as time and money fits.By far my advise is to leave the inductors as they are 18 awg. and the DC resistance is ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Cardas binding posts on the Lore.http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?p=301858#post301858 | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore The Lores are so well balanced I really can't see someone going very wrong.And size wize they don't over whelm.I disagree on this with Eric spend the extra bucks and get the real deal! You won't be sorry you did. I would never give up the rich bas... |
