| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Gpowered-Did you use the the 4 ohm or 8 ohm tap with the Xindak and the Pendragons? I wasn't aware they were 4 ohm speakers until 3 weeks after I placed the order. TIA. | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore I own the Lores and I have to agree with Cwazz on this one. I think 30 may be a bit optimistic. If we're talking about a flat response I think 38-40 would be more accurate. Anything below that and the bass starts to roll off. That being said, most... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Cpapace - How big is your room? I have the Lores and ordered the Pendragons. I hope my room is big enough. My room is 22 x 14 x 7 with the speakers on the long wall. The speakers will be about 3' from the front wall with one speaker about 6' from ... | |
| Higher-Fi has full page ad in dupont registry Nice catch Samhar. I've long had my suspicions and I think this may have proven them. Check out my post on AA on his McIntosh and Higher-Fi post. I'm RSF. | |
| Complete 2.0 System for Under $3k? Someone is asking for help assembling a system on a budget and you tell that person to "find another hobby". I don't think that is very funny and I'm sure there are many other members who feel the same way. You should be ashamed of yourself. | |
| Good CD Player under $800.00 used If you can stretch your budget I would think about the Sony XA5400ES. They can be had used for between $900-$1000 and new for between $1100-$1200. I too had a CAL Icon MK2 and like you said it sounded very good. When I upgraded to the Sony the dif... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore I have had my Lores since October. Eric was very accommodating. I needed them shipped so they would arrive on a certain day and he went the extra mile to make sure it would happen. They are very easy to drive. I'm using a restored 30 watt vintage ... | |
| Sony SACD 5400 ES: how to get it in standby ? Metralla. I've tried it both ways. Held the power button down for a split second and held the power button down for a few seconds and I got exactly the same results. The standby message flashes for a few seconds and then the unit clicks off. Is it... | |
| Sony SACD 5400 ES: how to get it in standby ? As far as I can tell the only way to completely turn off the unit is to pull the plug. The on/off button on the remote and the player puts the unit in standby. It doesn't matter how long you hold the button down the unit will click into standby. | |
| Sony 5400 question Yes you can. | |
| I am looking into the Tekton Lore's You might do better if you post on the "High Efficiency Speaker Forum" over at Audio Asylum. | |
| Time Has Come Today-The Chambers Brothers Blind Faith only made one album and "I Feel Free" is not on it. "I Feel Free" is the first song on Cream's first album "Fresh Cream". | |
| pro's and con's of a 4 ohm speaker? The TEKTON 8.1en are 8 ohm speakers. The 8.1t are 4 ohms. 35 watts is more than enough to drive them. Your tube amp won't have a problem driving either of them. If you can use a floor stander you may want to consider the Tekton Lore. I just got a ... | |
| Opinions on these amps? The Gallos are not a difficult load to drive. I'm driving my 3.1's with a pair of 60 watt tube monos and have no trouble in a 22' x 14' room. Unless you're a real headbanger any decent quality 50-60 watt tube amp in a medium size room should be fine. | |
| Room size Actually I have 7' ceilings. The way the room is configured the short wall isn't an option. |
