| 2017 Honest Cabling that doesn’t promote bankruptcy The best wire I have heard, and I have owned many, is the Duelund bulk stranded copper in oil impregnated cotton. Wonderful sounding with many of us Aphiles selling off cables costing up to $2500 for this stuff. Jeff Day and Jim Smith both love an... | |
| TACT 2150 I have the newer 2170 that Lyngdorf makes and agree with your comments on it. Lyngdorf does offer support now in the US. | |
| CD players = dead? I don't think sound quality is the issue anymore. I ripped all my cd's and they sound the same, perhaps a tad better than a CD player due to reduced jitter. Perhaps a tad, but pretty much the same. However Tidal when used with Roon is special. Sou... | |
| CD players = dead? I listen to whole albums when I want when streaming? Just as easy to skip forward on a CD player. Just as easy. Remote and one press of a button. ? | |
| "One Box Solutions" - Suggestions ? You must look into the Lyngdorf 2170. An amazing piece. Neal over at Sound Science can tell you more. We both replaced separates costing over $20,000 and like the Lyngdorf better. It has a DSD dac and SOTA room correction. Your wife will love the ... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Agreed apples and oranges. Bottom line. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Interesting review. I was a bit taken back when the reviewer said that folks who like Harbeth, Audio Note, and Acoustic Vienna speakers would not find the Tekton Brilliance sound to their liking? I owned two of the three and loved them. Big fan of... | |
| Sonic qualities of SET output tubes? @blindjim Did you buy that set of Thor TPA30s on Audio Mart? If so, killer deal and good for you. I owned this amp twice. I have done numerous upgrades to them and they represent some of the best PP tube sound one could ever purchase. Wonderful el... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Did that happen here? Looks like the thread is going very well. | |
| Sonic qualities of SET output tubes? Charles, that is a shame.Seems to work for me and others? Ok, I have a listing for a grab bad of DIY stuff here on the gone. Only a couple of listings there and mine will be easy to find. Look under the DIY stuff as I will add it there for a day ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Understand vitop. @charles1dad I have watched you build your system over the years. You have been very careful and deliberate in building exactly want you want and desire in a system. Your system is first rate and there is little chance throwing o... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thanks a bunch Al. Your post makes complete sense. Vitop, the Lyngdorf is a killer value when one looks at it in its whole. It is not an amp. It is a complete rig with other add-ons and options. I replaced over $22,000 worth of separates and wire ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Here is the explanation from the Lyngdorf site. I understand the point and just know it, the unit, sounds very good:) Someone smarter than I in these matters, such as Almag, can perhaps comment on the theory anyway. "ICC (INTER-SAMPLE CLIPPING C... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts ICC, well it is always active and I have not listened with it off. I must say I don't know that much about it and should read more in my manual. My bad. I will do so now. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Yes we as audiophiles can now put together amazing sounding systems for reasonable money. Great options such as those from Tekton, Lyngdorf, LTA and others. |
