Efficient speaker: Zu, Tekton, Volti, Klipsch, Fleetwood?
bradf to answer your question about scale, I’d say it’s very realistic. If voices or instruments don’t seem "life-size" on these speakers, they aren’t set up well, although in my experience they are very easy to set up and get sounding right. The ...

Bradf I originated this post and mentioned I currently own the Devore Super 9s. They are the best speaker I've ever had in 40 years of high end audio, and I've owned about 20 brands. I previously had the 0/96 which I think are better overall, but ...

vladtheimpala but then I couldn't afford to move in to my new house.

blkwrzwgn thanks for the information. It seems both Tekton and Zu attract some very extreme viewpoints. There have also been comments about the Tekton customer service in other forums, which concerns me. As far as some other posts on this thread, ...

Don't know what you mean by "fan boy," I have no dog in the hunt, just looking for useful, helpful information.

missioncoonery I went back through this thread. Three of the negative Tekton comments had to do with their efficiency not being as high as advertised, with Stereophile test confirming. As far as I can tell, only two of the negative posters actuall...

ddafoe, thanks for the information. My wife thinks the Fleetwood is beautiful, but I haven’t told her how much they cost. I’ve seen them on Youtube videos, they certainly aren’t your tiny min-monitors. They’d be a much easier choice at about half ...

missioncoonery what is it about Tekton that "blows," particularly the Lore? My experience has been just the opposite, most of the people that have heard them give them rave reviews. This type of post is not really helpful.

fatdaddy2 thanks for the input. Agreed that some of the larger, multi-tweeter Tektons ar downright ugly, but the Lore is within the acceptable WAF range. I'm more concerned about some of the negative comments about the Tekton sound, because the re...

Fiesta75, thanks for your input. If you don’t mind my asking, what in particular don’t you like about the Tekton Lore?

Sbank you are correct about the Devores needing to be away from the back wall. I've owned 9s, O/96 and now the Super 9, and they've all sounded best at least 30 inches away from the wall. So I'm not considering them for the new room.  
Cartridge (other than Rega) with Rega RP10
When I first got the RP10, it came with a Rega cartridge, the original Apheta maybe, I'm not sure. But whatever it was, it was hard, bright and unlistenable. I had it quickly changed out to the Benz. Hopefully Rega cartridges have improved since t... 
Cartridge (other than Rega) with Rega RP10
Thanks for your comment, chakster. I understand your point of view, but In my 45 years listening to a wide variety of audio equipment, including cartridges, I have found none to be "absolutely neutral." Every component has a different way of prese...

Thanks theo and audiojedi. Is there a Lyra "house" sound?
