| 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... | |
| 2 Channel Subwoofer connection Yes mattmiller please explain your logic | |
| Help Me Choose (new) Bookshelf Speakers, and Integrated Amplifier for $1300 and under! The HSU HB1 are very nice and pretty efficient. For amps, if you can find a used Rega Mira 3 integrated, they are a very good value. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering The Tekton Brilliance was reviewed today. Same price as the DI. It's smaller and doesn't play as low, but the price is the same. Why have 2 floor standers at the same price? My guess is that the Brilliance is geared more towards 2 channel in a med... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering It will be interesting to see if he allows current DI owners to swap in the Scanspeak drivers or if he goes with a trade up program. If he does used prices should remain strong as folks won't have a need to sell to upgrade. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering You can get away with cheaper speakers in a design like this because they aren't being pushed like they would be in a 2 way design and individual drivers aren't being asked to produce a really wide frequency range. This is not to say that there ar... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering I'm sure he sees it as intellectual property. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering I see the DI's as just getting started. Already there are upgraded crossovers and caps. There also appears to be quite a bit of room to upgrade the woofers and tweeters to higher end, such as from Seas or Dynaudio. And to solve any phase or comb f... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Agreed , it’s great to ask questions about any product and that’s what these forums are for However the OP is really not asking a question but throwing the statement out here based on nothing really There is a difference. It is a negative comment ... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Can you help us better understand how your expert friend is testing and measuring the DI speaker? I am sure he must have a pair to take measurements of. Did he actually precisely measure all the details he is talking about? I assume he has the cro... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Sean,So if you asked your friend about the DI's already knowing pertinent details as I've mentioned why are you wasting our time with this nonsense.Have you actually listened to these speakers or are you just trying to convince yourself they are n... |
