Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to?
Truth is the crossover parts found in many Tekton speakers are the same quality level as most speakers costing up to $21,000 that I have modified. This is the truth of the matter. A sea of $10,000 - $25,000 speakers with $10 caps and $ .50 cent sa... 
New Tweak --- Its Fantastic
Tom, you use/used the product? I trust your expertise and ask if you were involved. Thanks.   
Are you getting ridiculous offers from new members
Yes, all the time.  Nothing new unfortunately.

Website link? Very expensive for such a tiny amount.  
Full-sounding SS amps (besides Pass)
Lyngdorf 2170 and any Electrocompaniet Amplifier.  
Tekton Double Impacts
@aniwolfe “If your interested in DIY route. You might want to search for "DIY Roller Blocks" ”Thanks for this tip as I built a set for my Lyngdorf 2170 with great results for under $50. I am building another for my server/player and BPT & CPT ... 
JAM by Duelund
Correct @audioman58    However when large value caps are needed and space is tight these are oftentimes one of the best options.  Another good option is Sonic Craft Gen 1.

@radiohead99 You are referring to a different Mundorf cap ... Supreme Oil, Silver, Gold. I am referring to the Newer EVO Supreme Oil, Silver, Gold. They are very nice. If you want smooth over detail, then the Jupiter VT cap line is the perfect cho... 
20 Year Old Amplifiers compared to 2017
Could not disagree more. Class D amps are indeed on the cutting edge and the future. Even better .... powered dacs. Powered dacs with room correction are another huge development. In the future there will be no such thing as a separate, stand alon...

For a large value cap like that I think the best sounding large  value cap is the Mundorf EVO Supreme Silver, Gold, Oil.  They are expensive, but the best large value cap I have heard. Watch the size of the Jupiter line when the value gets big as ...

I personally like Jupiter copper foils as much as Duelund CAST and more than the Duelund RS. The JAM is not as good as RS .... well they are under the RS in the Duelund Line. I would go with 100% Jupiter Copper foils.  This is especially true in e... 
Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 1)
I am also very, very confused. I am not smart enough to be an audiophile anymore is my take away. Only a handful of us are. @geoffkait is one of the handful 🤔 
Tekton Double Impacts
I think something at play here is the cabinet. It is only .75 inches thick even on the front baffle. It is NOT the most inert. At db levels of 110 dB they will undoubtably cause all kinds of vibration induced distortion and smearing. That is very,... 
ROON help needed
Yes I do find that Tidal with Roon brings up the sound quality another notch. The DSP ability in Roon is yet another plus with no negatives I could hear. I use a light handed approach with the EQ with fantastic results. I find listening without DS... 
Duelund DCA16GA
