| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Jedinite24,I am thinking of moving fro Audio Nirvana 12" to the Lores. Do let us know how the two compare if/when you have a chance to compare them. | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Cwazz, What is the damping factor of the amps you used? This can really affect the bass extension. As I mentioned above, I have found that low damping factor amps play very well with full range drivers in ported boxes, as long as they don't lead t... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore No direct experience with the Lore, but in my experience with a full range driver design, I have found that the quality and frequency extension of the bass can be very dependent on the damping factor of your amp. I had an Aleph 30 that I loved wit... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Thanks for the crossover info. I have found that taking some of the load off my main drivers by using both a high and low pass filter really improved things. Not sure if this was due to taking the load off my main speaker amp or from taking the lo... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Genjamon,Where do you have the crossover set for your sub? And are you using a filter to take some of the low freq loas off of the Lore driver?On the mp3 problem, I would check with Eric. Popping or ticking suggests a tweeter problem.Please do kee... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore And is there anyone in the Chicagoland area with some Lores? I'd love to get a listen. Would even schlep over some amps to see how they sound with different amplification.... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Genjamon,Good to see another Ween fan here. I'm also a Horn Shoppe owner and would be very interested in your impressions compared to those speakers. Also, how difficult was it to integrate the Lore's with your sub? What crossover point did you use? | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? Duke,Could you point us to examples of manufacturers or models that are well suited to a low damping factor amp (as a proud Atma-sphere S-30 owner I am quite interseted in your suggestions). | |
| Most helpful audio companies Another vote for Atma-sphere and Modwright. | |
| Do Mono Block amps provide better sound ?? Ralph and others, I am curious about whether the issues surrounding monoblocks also generally apply to low-powered amps. The lowest power Atmasphere amp, the S-30, is the only non-monoblock in the line. Is this just to hit a specific price point o... | |
| Best SS preamp $1000 How about an Adcom 750? Nelson Pass design. Ability to run it as an active or passive pre. | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Glory, I would look at the Wyred4Sound or Eastern Electric DACs. Gopher had the Eastern DAC an S30 and the Superflys in his system, but not sure if he ran the DAC straight to the Atma. | |
| My last pre-amp, Rowland Capri or Ayre K5xe ? Can you let us know what you would like to have from a pre (features or sound-wise) that you aren't getting from the Pass? | |
| My 1st tube amp: transformer buzz audible 15 feet? It is not necessarily the amp that is defective. Does it make this hum regardless of where it is plugged in or what it is plugged into?In my case, it was my apartment's cruddy power. The amp was a Nelson Pass designed and built FirstWatt F1. One o... | |
| My 1st tube amp: transformer buzz audible 15 feet? It could be that you have DC on the line. I had this problem in my last apartment with my FirstWatt F1. There are two devices you can get to solve the problem (if it is in fact DC on the line!): the PS Audio Humbuster and the CI Audio XDC-2. Both ... |
