Tekton Double Impacts @klh007 , im loving the DI's and interestingly enough using the Mirror Image there is much more bass now with this rare gem of a SS amp. As much as I enjoyed the Benchmark AHB2 it sounds a little anemic in comparison. I think David would agree sin... | |
Tekton Speakers,Who owns them and what did you replace and why. I have been listening to Monitor Audio Gold GX300 for the last 5 years in my HT/ 2 channel basement. I liked the MA's although a bit more colored and bright than I would like, they had good bass and worked just fine in my HT. I paid $5500 new for ... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @teajay , what is the minimum size room you would reccommend for the Ulf? I have a 30' x 36' unfinished space above my office. The ceiling is angled and peaks at about 20', I can change that. My intention is to eventually build out this space but ... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @snopro , I would like to hear the pass XA-30.8 with my DI's one of these days. Nice looking set up on your systems page. | |
Tekton Double Impacts I suppose it's all about synergy. The MZ2 paired with my ZOTL40 and electrostats is truly a giant killer!Lance | |
Tekton Double Impacts @porscheracer , @klh007 , Marks new ZOTL intergrated 10 watt amp has true balanced inputs and not transformer balanced. A David Berning designed balanced tube circuit. I'm not sure if it's in production yet but if not, should be soon.Lance | |
Best Bang For The Buck I've Ever Spent My Linear Tube Audio MZ2. I have never owned such a high performing component for so little $. It is the Swiss Army knife of audio. A world class preamp, head phone amp and a 1 watt power amp. From David Berning and Mark Schneider. | |
Tekton Double Impacts My one more song keeps going until my wife yells "IM TRYING TO SLEEP" | |
Tekton Double Impacts Can't wait to hear your thoughts on the sound. The price is right.Lance | |
Tekton Double Impacts I've been trying different Amps with the DI's and lately have been using SS amps even though I prefer tubes overall. A friend from our local audio club came by this morning and brought a 30 year old amp from a company that has been long out of bus... | |
Spatial Audio speakers sound best with Solid state or tube amps. If so, which models? I was at Linear Tube Audio for a visit and they had a pair of Spatial M3's I think, driven by a ZOTL40 and the sound was very, very good. In fact better than the other speakers in his showroom that day.Lance | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Just just a quick report. @wig told me I would be amazed at the CT GE umbilicle cord for my Modwright Oppo 205 and he was right. Bob did it again. This sweet cable is refined and improves the already excellent sound im getting with my 205, AHB2 a... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @jollygreenaudiophile2 , Mark at Linear Tube Audio in Takoma Park told me months ago that Eric was sending him a pair of speakers. I waited for quite a while to listen to them but they never showed up. I got impatient and went ahead and ordered th... | |
Tekton Double Impacts @corelli , I think the new LTA integrated will be ready soon. It will be 10 watts and will have true balanced inputs, not transformer coupled balanced but a special "David Berning" designed tube circuit. I think Mark is working on an upgraded powe... | |
New Class A/B under $6K, your recommendation? I have the AHB2 and it is the best SS amp I've owned. You can believe the specs because these are a clear and open conduit for your source. I suggest a tube preamp. They can come off as a little clinical depending what you feed it. |
