Tekton Impact Monitors
Actually, I find these speakers to sound great. Really great. I was impressed before the upgrade and more so after. I was actually surprised by the amount of good bass. My comments are general comments about booming and remedies. These monitors pa...

Footers help for sure, but won’t eliminate booming as part of a design. Internal damping, footers and very low DCR coils all can help.   
Binding Post Jumpers - New Product!!!
I have some coming in to test vs Neotech and bare wire. I will report back. Will be interesting.

Hi guys. The caps will not fix boomy bass. Boomy bass is caused more by the inductor and lack of proper cabinet damping. I am specifically talking about bass boom/overhang here. I did add a little acoustic damping to Scott’s speakers as damping is... 
Duelund cast Pio Hybrid Copper/Silver or Rs series with Silver Bypass PIO
 Nice  looking speakers. Look to have great build quality.

You made a good decision sticking with the heavy gauge solid core  wound over foil. You will love the results.  What are you using for internal wire. Looks like Duelund copper stranded? Thoughts of placing the crossover outboard? Very good for Son...

Very nice.  You have some very high quality boards that will help make your speaker sound beautiful. Did you make the inductors or were they made for you? Nice!

I like the build design as it as close to no connector as I have seen. Connectors degrade sound compared to bare wire hook up. That goes for binding posts and connectors. I usually bypass both!  Many aphile type posts and connectors are very heavy...

Just order two Path Audio and put in parallel. They will now handle 20 watts. Two in parallel always sound better than one! If you need a 4ohm resistor, example only, put two 8 ohm in parallel for your 4 ohm spec.

Agreed on a Path Audio as they are quiet and even handed throughout the frequency spectrum.  . Best resistors I have used. I like the Mills MRA12 better than Mundorf, but both are good. Mills are nice and extended, but never bright.   
Tekton Double Impacts
I am working on some Impact Monitors for another and it has given me ideas. Ideas for a killer monitor. Just in the infancy stage right now so I will hold off for now saying anything more.

Congrats! You will enjoy them.

I am letting folks on this thread know that my set of DIs are available for purchase if interested.  Why? I love them and love working on Tekton speakers as they respond so darn well to upgrades. I am working on another set of Tekton speakers as I...

Duelund wire, copper stranded, cost $9 meter for 16ga. 🙂 Great wire for speaker internals or outboard crossover if you need 15-60 meters of wire! That’s what my last two upgrades needed. I can only imagine what the total bill would have been for 6...
