| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? Look at the specs on a Benchmark ABH2! Can anyone find an amp with better performance specs?It could be said that this amp is chasing a few specific specs and is using a lot of feedback to get there. So it may sound squeaky clean, but does it make... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering So, in this environment, Eric must offer a "budget" equivalent to high-end products at a fraction of the cost -- to attract new buyers who want the best but cannot (or will not) pay $30k.I agree and I think that Tekton should be considered along w... | |

| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Me too, so I asked a smart person what they thought and this is what they said: "Yikes, patents can be dreamy but this one is pretty out there.The invention is predicated on (a) the relationship of transducer moving mass versus whatever is resonat... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering here is Eric's patent on loudspeaker design. https://www.google.com/patents/US9247339 | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Mr. Eric, I have actually said very little. I have posted the opinions of others, who are much smarter than myself...they don't have the innate knowledge of your loudspeakers like you do...but they understand the math and physics stuff and don't a... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Well, well, well. It looks like comb filtering might not be a problem...it may just be the secret sauce!!! If you are familiar with panels then you will know the sound of comb filtering. If you use a flanger or reverb on a guitar you will be fami... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering So one thing can be certainly said, those speakers will color the sound, and change the music from what the artist intended. This is not necessarily a bad thing as one can argue that hifi is getting things better than the original recording. Of... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering What I don't get is why Tekton is withholding the frequency response graph of their speakers, so prospective customers can see how the speakers compare with their own, or with other brands. Zu Audio did the same thing as far as not releasing... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering This was a good response from another thread on the Tekton phenomena. shadorne5,843 posts08-23-2017 9:13am@stfoth I suspect your reservations (BS meter) are worth following. Why not wait and see how Tekton fairs over time. When Zu took guitar ca... | |
| PREAMP technology shift? - Class A/ balanced/ dual-mono/ zero feedback vs. op-amp preamps If you like soundstaging abilities, so far I've yet to see a solid state preamp that can keep up with a good tube preamp in that regard. It always seems that low level detail suffers on the solid state preamps. I have noticed that my tube amp ... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering I've explained the 7 tweeter array in many threads including the beginning posts in this threadIt is a fascinating read, but with all due respect, where did you get that information? | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering @seanheis1 you mention the DI’s might not be ideal for midrange junkies and that they are for movies and music with slam.I suggest that you read again what I said. It was a Harbeth owner who found them too forward for his taste and had a challenge... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering I believe that if there is a return situation, Tekton eats the send shipping cost since it was "free." There is more risk buying internet direct but the reward is if you like the speaker, you can save quite a bit. The guy who started the DI monito... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering I think that this thread has been very helpful. Tekton is a lot like ZU Audio. Very unique designs that are well reviewed and award winning. Having said that, there are flaws and warts in every design. Not every speaker is right for every applicat... |
