Thanks to all, I really appreciate it. I love my Tekton DI's, hard to beat them for my Rock and Roll music.  There are so many choices out there. I just looked at Sound Advice per recommendations, on the Usher Mini 2, as it's in my price range. Ne...

Tekton speaker comparison thread
Just spent some time on the phone with Eric at Tekton, He suggested as I was into R&R exclusively ' that the MOAB, with BE tweeter would be the better way to go. The encors are very accurate speakers, but, at this time more suited to classical...

You have a very Valid point. Thank you, I did a lot of reading and investigating yesterday on the ATC scm-40. The New price used to be around 8K, and your post shows $5999, a nice price drop for new. As I read further, several of the articles real...
