| Tekton Double Impacts Belles makes great sounding amps and this amp below (link) is a fine deal. I owned it and the more powerful 350 ref. Having owned many nice SS amps from the likes of TRL, Electrocompaniet, Aesthetix, CJ, Blue Circle, Monarchy Audio, Levinson, McIn... | |
| Duelund cast Pio Hybrid Copper/Silver or Rs series with Silver Bypass PIO This is the cap Charles and I used and liked. All you would need with no additional bypass cap. Duelund cast PIO CU Copper series They are expensive. Go ahead and email them saying you would like to splurge on these but need help and ask if they... | |
| “Invest” in Tekton? Sslide, thanks for your comments. Most interesting and good for us to hear. Please remember what may sound good to you and Terry may still not be someone else's sonic bliss. We humans hear differently, have sonic flavors we prefer, and nothing in... | |
| Duelund cast Pio Hybrid Copper/Silver or Rs series with Silver Bypass PIO Curious as to why the builder said avoid PIO caps? Yes the Jensen caps are warm and a tad slow, but nice overall. Not all PIO caps sound the same however. If you love speed, resolution and air, then go for CAST hybrid! If that is what you are shoo... | |
| Duelund cast Pio Hybrid Copper/Silver or Rs series with Silver Bypass PIO For your use I would stick with the copper CAST. They are wonderful. I am not sure you need to add the bypass silver cap to be honest. Sometimes resolution can be taken too far and long term listenability can suffer. Many recordings are less than ... | |
| “Invest” in Tekton? +1 also rebbi. I have had the same experiences as you in the past. I have also found what a particular reviewer thinks is great sounding may just be OK with me at best. They have prejudices when it comes to sonic personalities and often have diffe... | |

| Pass 30m or Bob Latino ST 120? OP needs to give more info. He was asked to and did not. He told the Agon members to go to another site and read more about his needs? Obviously he could not muster up enough energy to post a proper question. Garbage in will always reward with gar... | |

| CD players = dead? @kalaliGreat question. I find with some older artists like my favorite, Van Morrison, that my ripped collection is deeper than Tidal. This will vary by artist as you know. Right now I spend about 60% of my time listening to Tidal streams vs. my ri... | |
| Pass 30m or Bob Latino ST 120? Answer: yes | |
| CD players = dead? You rip your collection so it sounds better and is much easier to find and play! Your ripped collection plus streams are both managed through Roon/Tidal for the best sound quality and user interface possible. You have liner notes, lyrics, reviews... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I think the point being made is every single piece of gear ever made is limited by the power supply. This includes everything plugged into any wall outlet in your home. That is what Jack is saying. | |
| CD players = dead? Vinyl is big with millennials right now, but this is just a fad and deemed to be the cool thing to do. Nothing to do with a desire for better sound quality. It will pass. All serious digital innovation is not going towards CD players. New models m... | |
| Does Hannah Reid of London Grammar have the most captivating voice today? Hannah has a wonderful voice. Just listened to two of their CDs. I like the first one better. I have enjoyed Beth Orton for years! |
