Tekton Double Impacts
@klh007 Thanks for the info, I didn't know a new model was released,  I'll look into this. 
Tekton Double Impacts
I'm impatiently waiting for new speakers to be made.  I have 6 weeks of this anxiety to contend with.  I have a NAD M22 rev2 to try out coming tomorrow, but I will likely not keep it because I'm pretty sure the NORD OneUp SE Monoblocks will slay t...

Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
What site?  Any chance to preorder or get on a list? Thanks.  
Still looking for speakers in the 10-20,000 range
Another vote for Tekton Design Ulfberht at $12K.  I currently own there $3300 Double Impacts, but I'm upgrading to the Ulfberhts and should have them in 6 weeks.  If they are anything like the Double Impacts they should provide sound quality value... 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad Yes, good call sir. I’m stoked to have 3 fine pairs tubes to roll with. I’m still on the fence on getting a pair of Takatsuki, but parts connexion has them for like $1650 which isn’t bad considering the $2500msrp and the Elrog’s recen... 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad I got the mesh plates today! I've got to just say they may very well end up being my new favorite.  I perceive better transparency. Micro dynamics seem to be a little more pronounced, but not artificially so.  Ambient information seem... 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad  I will update you as soon as I get them.  Unfortunately my shipment is delayed with UPS. Probably weather related. The package seems to still be in NY. They claim it will be here tomorrow for delivery, but the tracking hasn't moved s... 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad 10/4, I'll know sometime today once the tubes arrive.  I really can't wait my to get my Ulfberhts in a few weeks.  Still torn between the SE DIs and going all in once and for all, hope I'm making the right choice for my room.  
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad  Thanks for the input on the EML Meshplates.  George seemed to think that I should be okay running them in my amp leaving the autobias circuit at 75ma.  I think I'll turn it down to 65ma and see how that goes.  Frankly I don't know wh... 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad  I guess I'll find out if the meshplates are an improvement.  I just ordered a pair from George at TubeUSA. 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
@charles1dad   I'm ecstatic that people are getting such longevity out of the EML tubes.  I want to possibly try their 300B Meshplate, any thoughts?@brownsfan You're quite welcome. Yeah I can't see spending that much on another pair for the subtle... 
Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts?
I just passed the 1 year mark for my Elrog 300B tubes. I will admit that I have also been running the EML 300BXLS in my Art Audio Diavolo 300b SET Copper Reference amplifier as well. So I can say they have about 1000 hours on the Elrogs. Regarding... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Finally getting around to upgrading from the DIs to the ulfberhts.  Just waiting on a call back from Eric when he has some free time to get the ball rolling.  One thing that I'm hoping, that this will possibly be the very last speaker upgrade for ... 
Best high-efficiency speaker under 10K
Tekton Double Impacts are a 4 way 98db/4 Ohm load floor standing speaker.  I drive them with an 8wpc 300b SET, but many drive them with 2-3wpc 2a3 amplifiers to satisfying levels.  They compare to speakers much more expensive than their $3300 pric...
