| My Experience With Tekton Nwatsme- this is the 1st review of Tekton that seems believable IMO. You compared the $3000+ tektons (actually higher because you had upgrades) against a pair of smaller $600 DIY speakers and you liked your DIY $600 speakers better. So refreshing... | |
| The "Snake Oil" Trope Avitacom - you must be from the ANA site that has a strict limit of $50 for a cable. Let me ask you this: you want all of this scientific evidence for cables but it looks like you are using something better than zip cord and the .05 cent cable tha... | |
| My Experience With Tekton fsonicsmith-exactly, only 1 person writes like this.willgolf - but I read on multiple threads here that they blow away the hundreds of thousands of $$$ Magico and Wilson speakers. | |
| The "Snake Oil" Trope Sounds like you have visited the ANA site. Those wannabe audiophiles don't have the ears/the budget/the system to compare cables so they always state a cable over $50 is snake oil. They try to prove their point bringing in so called NASA experts/P... | |
| A Surreal Dream full of Audio Knowledge! How many myths can you put in 1 thread?I lost count in this 1. Also, it’s been proven a dozen years ago music played back from a hdd sounds better than from a cd.Dedicated streamers are not better than mac/pi, it boils down to the software readin... | |
| and 30 min later.... I had collected many lps during the past 50 years, some really good sounding some really bad sounding. I sold all my analog gear and lps without looking back years ago | |
| How can i improve the sound of Iphone 11? I used a cypher labs 720 dac with my iPhone and it sounded very good. I also used it between my Mac and desktop speakers | |
| Porsche We don’t listen to MC when he tries to talk about audio, you think we would listen to him about Porsche’s? The 911 variations are very nice, but I actually prefer the Cayman GT4 or the older Carrera GT, probably be getting a new GT4 before year end | |
| Helping a friend build a new system Rogue Cronus magnum with kt250 tubes, totem model 1’s or the totem hawks. Other speakers can be revel m20/m22, usher mini-x. The model 1’s and the revel speakers will probably need a small subwoofer like a Rel T series | |
| When are people going to wake up and realize listening is a skill? I’m still waiting for you to start. I don’t understand: you are the cheapest guy in audio by buying really low but claiming they are the best. So I’m assuming you purchased a used gremlin and taking it out on a Porsche track day but thinking you a... | |
| TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS Just get a better speaker! There are many many out there from $500 on up | |
| To Stream or Not to Stream If you are going into streaming, get a good quality dac, that's the most important piece. You don't need a dedicated streamer, been there. Get Roon, run it on a Linux or Mac and use any input on your dac as long it isn't usb or toslink or digital ... | |
| How many dealers do you use? I have visited many audio dealers for over 30 years, lately with audio clubs. I have visited a few in Atlanta that have very nice equipment but sound like crap. Some of the best sounding dealers are/were Definitive Audio in Washington state, and t... | |
| Who is ditching their shiny disc spinners? I can't believe there is so much misinformation on this thread. 1) Backups go bad. Are you backing up to paper tape? Tape? Backups don't fail, its people who fail to backup. If you are backing up to disk, all disks will eventually go bad, but the ... | |
| The Miller Carbon Story Its all about you and your journey of trying to convince people that the cheaper stuff you have is the best out there. Origin makes OK turntables with their rebuilt Rega arms. Again, just like your speakers, just because you talked to somebody doe... |
