| Tekton Impact Monitors "I recently lined the cabinets on my IM's and that did help with the bass.The factory soundproofing is definitely lacking. Perhaps internal bracing would help also. Room tweeks will be soon, as the rebuild project is almost done." I heard the Imp... | |
| My old Avid 330's, sheepishly guilty pleasure I have drivers from 102s i will let go | |
| Jeff Rowland model two sounding thin With Mini Utopia I owned the minis for maybe 6 months back in the day,thin is about what I would call them reguardles what you drive them with .I suggest moving on to another speaker,if Focal is your poison then try the new models,much much better | |
| Tekton custom grills Raidho is another without grills,there are a few that come to mind but most are on a higher level of price and quality. IMO the easiest thing would be just dont offer grills.Shouldnt be that big of a deal to the mod and DYI guys buying Tekton to m... | |
| 802d or 800d "I propose a third answer - neither. The measurements on both these speakers are fortunately published in Stereophile and they are not at all world class for such an expensive speaker. Basically a boosted treble and boosted bass with a mid range s... | |
| Tekton custom grills "I think that this thread is 3 years old and the issue still persists is a real statement to the miserable management and questionable cash flow of the operation""Someone on another thread mentioned the awkward fit/appearance of the squared grills... | |
| Are Aerial 10T's still considered a Good speaker on 2018? IMO it depends on what a steal of a deal it is..Hard to remember exactly my thoughts on them as its been so long ago but the 20T was a major advance.I think Id wait for a "steal of a deal" on the 20ts | |
| Dynaudio Contour 30 vs Confidence C2 comparisons I think your in an exciting postion,Ive owned the C1s,C1 platinums and the C4s..Never cared for the C2.This new Contour series looks promising,no idea on cost but if me Id find a place to audition before buying anything. I have heard the Confidenc... | |
| "1997 Vintage" REL Powered Subwoofer started making loud humming Ive owned REL since their basic entry into the US market,although the stadium wasnt my fav in their line up at the time.Of course it depends on repair cost but their newer subs far surpass the 90s lineup..other makers out there which in my mind ar... | |
| Tekton Impact Monitors Yep,nothing there for me....and just FYI I already have speakers that fit my wants... | |
| Tekton Impact Monitors I agree,Cheap cabinet construction and engineering or lack of..I heard these monitors a few weeks ago on a trip and wasn't impressed at all,very uncontrolled bass.Several attempts by the owner to tighten things up made no headway.Maybe I was expec... | |
| Biggest impact: moving from integrated to separates "and the ability to avoid complications with an extra interconnect outweighed the benefits of seperates. I was completely wrong" Being a seperates guy for decades im now running an integrated and coudnt be happier so I disagree with this statement... | |
| Decisions, Decisions.... Mcintosh, Devialet and B&W Advice Needed Im not a fan of B&W at all ,the 802D is ok but lacks bass control and a few other issues IMO.I owned the MC402 and 452 ,I would say your going the wrong direction.If staying with B&W I would match with a backline having speed,accuracy,bett... | |
| Worked Backwards and Would like to Hear Suggestions on Speakers I think back in day a lot used the 802d with mac gear,i guess it really depends on what your seeking in sound. For me those 2 brands i would never want.I prefer speed,accuracy,detail etc which neither have been accused of or shouldn't. The 802d wa... | |
| Worked Backwards and Would like to Hear Suggestions on Speakers IMO,if you can go 10 grand i would buy used and save on the 50% deprecation right as you unpack them.At that price you can basically get 25 grand speakers so id say your sitting pretty.I would not suggest Dynaudio as your amps are to slow and do... |
