16 bit is good enough.....
@lowrider57, the test CD that Tony brought over the first time turned out to be a first run of some of the work he’d been doing. He played the same thing at the Newport Audio Show a year earlier that @lancelock referred to. Tony told me he’s worki...

I forgot to add that the cost of $20 includes shipping and it can be done via PayPal. 👍

The price I paid was $20. It's not so much a drum solo that everyone can relate to and more of an acoustic effects event. Elliot Midwood has been around a few orchestras and couldn't figure out what some of the cymbals and bells were. That might m...

Hey Lowrider57,I just got off the phone with Tony and he said you can get it from him atTonian Labs or from Elliot at Acoustic Image High-End Audio Homepage. Right now, those are the only two places.Tony told me that someone from the Minnesota Aud... 
And a happy 4th to you all!
Happy 4th to one and all. Stay clear of ear damaging fireworks. 😎 
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE
Folkfreak, your concerns mirror mine. I've gotten to where I actually like the way everything looks now so if I were to get one, it would involve a long cord to get the next outlet box and even then, it may not work the way I thought it would.The ... 
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE
Check out this review on the Gutwire grounding approach. They don't think boxes are the answer since they eventually become saturated and have to be disconnected every few months and "shaken" to clean them out. Their approach is to drain the groun...

I haven't seen those in a long, long time. 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
I thought I'd never post this but after almost two years after installing HiFi Silver Tuning fuses in my amp and SACD player, I thought I'd try out reversing the fuses in my SACD player. I was never in the camp of "correct orientation" of fuses bu... 
Need advice about upgrading speakers ( it might be the last one i own).
Sunnyjim,I haven't heard the Von Schweikert Vr-22 but at that price, I'd give them a listen. At the same price, you can add the Clearwave Duet 6 monitors as well. I have them and am quite fond of them. All I can say is to listen to as many as you ... 
Tekton Double Impacts
I know that YouTube is not the last word in high fidelity but sometimes you can glean the potential of something just buy listening, source not withstanding.Having said that, there is a nice video of the Double Impact playing and if you have reaso... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Thanks pawsman,That quelled any worries my fevered brain might have conjured. My only caveat is the lightness you describe to the lower mids and bass but that's probably due to room size. My 10' x 15' apartment living room does all I need to reinf... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Thanks to all who responded. I just got off the phone with Eric and he almost sold me on them. He even mentioned you, pawsman, as being very impressed on how they compared to your $45K speakers. On an aside, I favorably commented on his use of the... 
Tekton Double Impacts
With all the exposure here with Tekton, has anyone heard their Impact Monitor? I miss the air and extension my old Tonians had with their ribbon tweeter. Any comments would be appreciated.All the best,Nonoise

SuunyJim, I can't recall if I've ever been told I'm outstanding so I'll wear it as long as I can. 😜On an aside, I checked out the price and noticed that it's gone up about $1K so that puts it close to the limits you placed. Anyway, Elliot is great...
