| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" @jetter it's not a "trial fee" but you are responsible for return shipping which can be pricey for a heavy speaker.@lula it's actually easier to manipulate a floorstander around on furniture gliders than to move the monitors around on stands.Low ... | |
| Ever tossed a record aside as poorly engineered and produced only to think otherwise later John Lee Hooker is wonderful!But his singing and playing have subtleties that don't come across well on the lofi equipment many of us had back in the day.It's pretty cool to rediscover music that you felt 'meh' about when you can hear all of the l... | |
| New Member And few questions on First Tube Amp. Another tinnitus sufferer here.+1 on the Primaluna integrated.Then you can change out the tubes later on and fine tune the sound to your preference.If you need to roll off the highs a little so it's not painful to hear that's easily done. | |

| I woke up to 6" of snow I love snow.What I hate is the ice that forms overnight after a sunny snowy day.Our property and road look like a skating rink:( But it's nice to stay warm inside and listen to music.When you've still got power anyway;) | |

The first time I visited a high end audio store and heard what music reproduction was capable of as opposed to my dad's cheapo system at home,lol!I don't recall the brands on display.The first time I listened to a Conrad Johnson tube amp transform... | |

| DIY Equipment and Speaker Stands I almost made my own stands recently but ended up with a super deal on some metal stands.Go on Esty and put 'table legs" in the search engine.There are some guys on there that will custom make some very attractive metal legs for your project.Also ... | |
| GIK acoustic panels @erik_squires my speakers are (shhhh) Tekton Impact Monitors.Today I moved everything out of the living room and played around with positioning the panels and speakers.Right now it's sounding pretty darn good.The four corners have the 244s with r... | |
| GIK acoustic panels Thanks @millercarbon.I did consider making my own but GIK is able to make their traps with 'range limiters' so they will absorb a bit more bass and leave the high frequencies alone which intrigued me.It's a lot more expensive unfortunately than di... | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" Like "Dec Fest" put on by Decware every autumn.They provide food and drink for the three day weekend and there is a variety of components to audition.Great idea for small audio manufacturers! | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" Hmm....if I was researching which new component to audition would I be better off taking advice from internet trolls or teajay?Probably teajay and others who are knowledgeable and are able to articulate the pros and cons of various products withou... |
