Tekton Double Impacts
@bstatmeister I have the Encores, but previously had the DIs. They are better in bass response and have entirely different and larger long throw 11" woofers vs the high efficiency accordion-type surround paper pro-audio 10" woofers in the DIs.  Th...

@stephenurquhart there's no charge to pick any color you want. The high gloss is the up charge.  I've owned both double impacts in a flat finish and Encores in high gloss.  High gloss is worth it to me.

@stephenurquhart Yes it's a custom color.  Eric will paint your Encores any automotive or specialty color you chose.  The high gloss finish is extra labor intensive and does normally cost $1000 more lately.  I'm not sure what current pricing is bu...

@mijostyn Just how many Fs do you think I could care to count about your ignorant opinion?  Zero, zilch, none.  BTW the tweeters are $100 a piece and, because you're slow, that's $3k in tweeters alone which is hardly cheap considering its an $8500...

@stephenurquhart My Encores are finished in Spanish Tile high gloss.  Sorry for the delay, I have been getting over the flu. 
Tekton Double Impacts
@shadys My room is about the same.  The double impacts and the Encores both worked exceptionally well in my room.  
Need recommendations for an alternative to Ayon Crossfire integrated
@almarg I may have fubarred the name of the line magnetic, mea culpa!  
Need recommendations for an alternative to Ayon Crossfire integrated
Line Magnetic maybe your best bet.The LM-212PA monoblocks are 32wpc. It uses a 300b as a driver for a 212 tube.They also make the LM-805IA integrated which is 48wpc and uses the 805 tube. 
To Sell or Keep?
I never horde equipment, sell and move on.  Though I can't fault anyone for having a backup.

@charles1dad The Allnic monoblocks drive the Encores much better and that 50 extra watts of SET power allows me to play larger pieces of music with ease at higher volume levels all while maintaining its composure. Every nuance of the music is pres...

@charles1dad I switched back to tubes! I picked up some Allnic A6000 pse quad parallel 300bxls 60 wpc SET Tube Monoblocks from Audiogon! I absolutely love them with my Encores. Having so power really allows the Encores to perform their best!  
Does this exist? Preamp/Streamer/DAC with MQA, Roon and more
The Lyngdorf TDAI 3400 would be nearly perfect for you because it does everything you need, but it doesn't support MQA natively and retails for $7200 configured with premium analog and HDMI inputs which are optional. However Roon will play MQA fil... 
Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time"
