| The Beatles Revolver The article I read about it mentioned that Sir Paul McCartney was along side of the mixing decisions on the Giles recording. It is showing up on Qobuz but only Taxman is available. But I'll listen to it. As well as the rest of the added content th... | |
| Question about speaker angle I am at a quandary over this very issue. From the day I installed my speakers I had them toed in to aim about two feet behind my head. After a year of listening and then going to a local audio store. I thought there is no way my speakers are set... | |
| Rose RS250 Streamer/Dac? RS250 and SSD arriving this week sometime. Is the included instruction manual clearly described. The pdf that I downloaded is partly in Korean and not so clear in the exact procedure. Specifically transferring files onto the internal SSD. Is it mo... | |

| What sends shivers down your spine when you play it on your system? I don't know what you mean by shivers.... But Leonard Cohen "Opus Collection" definitely sends shivers down my spine. And Morphine "Cure for Pain".... Both of these recordings. | |
| Which tubes are the best? Sorry, just a novice here. Got a PrimaLuna amp that started to whiz a little so I went to get some new tubes. (This was just two weeks ago) After some research and reviews choose the "Natural Sound 6CA-7" which is a Shu Guang Perfect Pair. So whil... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Order the special grill cloth from AcousTex offered by Tekton ($100). They are very superior and transmit 97% of the sound. Many people don't put grills on, but I had to for aesthetic reasons and keeping the cones safe from little kids. I called... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Well, "Shoot me in the foot with a rubber band!!!" I had the dang speaker cables into the 8ohm output instead of the 4ohm. Um, yeah. I feel stupid now. The sound is amazing (unless it's the placebo effect, but I don't think it is) I'm pretty picky... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @corelli the tubes are EL34. I did think about trying to roll a KT88 or 120. I'm unfamiliar with that so I didn't want to "push" the limits if there are any. According to reviews, I shouldn't have a problem rolling higher.I also thank those respo... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I've been listening to the DIs for about a week now. Grills came in just a few days after the speakers. Fit and finish were very nice on all. Heavy, watch those cones. I lifted mine with a neighbor using the ports front and back. Banana plugs were... | |
| Primaluna separates or Integrated? https://www.ohmite.com/wirewound/Get the Ohmite 12 watt Resistor and call PrimaLuna which I think will end up routing you through Kevin and he'll tell you how to connect them. It's really easy. I didn't end up getting the Triton Ones like I was go... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I just took the DI plunge. Upgrade model. To match our furniture, SW 6048Terra Brun, a nice rich warm brown. I am ordering two sets of grills, one conservative set of black by AcousTex with the 98% transmission fabric. I will be calling them tomor... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @mac48025 I PM'd you. Maybe I did it wrong. |
