Tekton Double Impacts
Thank you, Kenny, for reposting this  article by Nelson Pass. I read it a few years ago and didn't understand it then. I still don't understand it, but I misunderstand it less now than then. Like you, it helps explain why I like the sound I do fro... 
Tech That Flopped!
DBX records......Only one or two had real music content and the complex approach  soon slipped into oblivion.   
Tekton Design Brilliance
Hi, Bonddam:Thanks for posting about your Brilliance, As I've said, placement is important for these speakers. What kind of music are you enjoying and how have you placed your speakers?  What is the nature of your room? Your kids are so cute. Do t... 
Using DBX-40 without a tape deck
Thank you VERY much. I'll only plug it in when I want to play lp's encoded with their program.  I do this on your advice and I thank you again. Mazikrav 
Using DBX-40 without a tape deck
Might my post be better placed on another thread? Digital or whatever? 
Using DBX-40 without a tape deck
Could my DBX-40, alternativiely,  be introduced immediately after my high level phono cartridge and before the preamp?  
I wish I had a device that would delay lowering my TT arm
Thank you, imahififan.  This looks interesting. When I get some time to stay with the adjusting problem, I'll take a stab at it.Mazirkrav

This looks promising, imhififan.  I wonder if you could post a picture of your rig? 
Tekton Double Impacts
Thanks, Kenny.  Let's see how our budget works in the future and if Reno Hi-Fi will give a sufficient break on my F-3 to experiment.  Until then, I too am happy. I'm wondering where you live?

Quick spelling corrections: 'mediocrity', audiology,' and 'sourceSorry, Audiogoners. Forgive a 77 year old fumblefingers.  BTW, I'd be interested in knowing if there are many other senior citizens on this mad chain?  
Tekton Double Impacts
Dear all,Every time I say to myself, "enough already."  I'm happy with my sound. I find it impossible to understand the fine points of amplifier design.. I'm ready to retire from the dialogue. Some of you post observations that encourage me to jum... 
I wish I had a device that would delay lowering my TT arm
That would seem to be obvious, but it's not as easy as it seems due to the unipivot arm and the vpi anti-skating gizmo.  I've tried my rig with and without the anti-skatie and overall I prefer the anti skate set at minimal correction. Peter Lederm...

I hope this will answer David's questions:As in the reviews of the Double Impact, the finest feature of the Brilliance speaker system is utter clarity. Instruments and vocals are utterly natural. Detailing is amazing.  The Brilliance's  lighter we...

Thank you, tooblue. YOU ARE A GENIUS !!!! Problem solved. Thank you so very much. Suggestion to VPI___Why not post this or include it in the instructions.Mazikrav 
I wish I had a device that would delay lowering my TT arm
Thanks, Shadorne.Wow, you are prompt!!!!!I don't believe, however, that the VPI arm uses fluid to damp the arm control lever. It seems to be a friction device only.  Is there anyone who can tell me I'm wrong.  I'll check with my dealer or with VPI...
