An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers
" MC...Please ,your shilling of Tekton is as obvious as your lack of knowledge of true quality audio speakers..Tekton is junk!No idea why this site allows you and the rest of the clown posse to post such bs."You could be right but I think I might... 
An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers
I took the video down in light of the fact that I realized that it might be a setup problem but in the meantime I replaced them with Klipsch Forte 4's and I'm playing those now while the Tektons sit in my garage. In a couple of weeks when I finish... 
An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers
BTW, to the guy whoever said that my post was just about hyping my mouthpieces, I don't make them anymore, I'm semi-retired and only have my own line saxophones now and am available to offer free advice on gear which I usually discourage people fr... 
An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers
First, for a few of you, "when you point a finger, three point back at you". A) Yes, I wanted to sell them and did what anyone else would have done knowing that one of the resident "experts" would like them.  Would you say they suck if you wanted ... 
Upscale Audio and Primaluna
In retrospect, I wonder if I should have bought a Cayin instead of the PrimaLuna and saved a bunch but Upscale was pretty good thus far.  Also bought a pair of Klipsch.  
Upscale Audio and Primaluna
My experience with Upscale is somewhat limited, I only bought a PL EVO 300 and a pair of Klipsch Forte 4's from them but when I bought my amp Todd could have sold me more stuff but didn't.  Now, I can't really comment on the PL yet because I'm rea... 
what system musicians prefer? Do they care?
I'm a musician of forty years (local 802) and during my research of buying some gear I recently talked to a few of my friends including one who plays with Steely Dan and they all have very average or below average systems and AirPods.  We really d... 
What’s a mistake you made by being impulsive?
I bought into the hype and bought Tekton Double Impacts.   
Biggest audio hoaxes
I'm in a funny business, I make mouthpieces and saxophones for some pretty heavy hitters and although I don't engage in it, lots of people in the business do all kinds of gimmicky type things and back it with heavy advertising and musicians that n... 
Tekton versus Klipsch
I recently received my Tekton DI's and am utterly dismayed by how they sound when compared to the press they get. First, they're not a three-thousand dollar speaker, they're more like a twenty-three hundred dollar speaker when you take off the shi... 
Tekton versus Klipsch
I might have already commented on this so forgive me if this is a repeat. I'm so grossly disappointed by my Double Impacts it's pitiful and I've tried everything imaginable to get them to work.  My amp is a PrimaLuna EVO 300.  I'm a musician (Loca... 
Tekton versus Klipsch
I feel greatly let down by my Double Impact speakers and the service I received from them.  The women there didn't know anything about speakers and the owner was rude.  When I received them I couldn't believe how disappointed I was and I paired th...
