The high range on my speakers are harsh... 10-29-12: KfwulfI would like to thank you all for the responses.To clear up some questions:- - - I have not undergone any kind of room treatment.If someone were to put new tires on their Cadillac but not fill them with air I would expect the ride ... | |
Austin TX Record Convention Yup, I'll be there with a few buds on Saturday.This time I'm bringing one of those headlight things so I can be sure the records I take home aren't junk like half the ones I've brought home in the past | |
Good amp for Tekton lore s speakers? I had the standard Lores and loaned them to a friend who had a pretty much untreated room. In my room they sounded much better than in his room, particularly the relative lack of bass (too much hi freq sounds a lot like not enough bass).I don't th... | |

Amplifier for Tekton speakers 10-19-12: Nguyen787I read somewhere said Tekton Lore are no cross-over design. Is it true? How can a 10" drive and a tweeter without a cross-over? This is intriguing.What some manufacturers do is run the main driver full range, and simply a capaci... | |
Klipschorns as mains and HT subs??? I agree with Mechans and Markpao. I owned KHorns a couple of years ago. You might like the bass and you might not, but it is not HT bass in any case. | |
Rega Apollo and CD-R problems. 10-16-12: AtarashiihikariI paid 2 grand for it.Two thousand? two thousand what? Because it only ever retailed for right at $1,000US.The loaner I got from my dealer had a lot of issues just like you describe. I have had mine for a year now and have... | |
Best solid state amp upgrade from NAD 214? I bridged a pair of 214s and really didn't notice much improvement, but if you can get one for $100 then what the heck, maybe with your speakers it may help (I had Magnepan MG12s at the time) | |
Best solid state amp upgrade from NAD 214? One of the biggest upgrades I've done was when I went from an Adcom solid state GTP preamp (450?) to a quicksliver linestage with my NAD 214. The jump in performance was huge. I'm not familiar with the NAD 1000 but I wouldn't be surprised if you g... | |
Amplifier for Tekton speakers 10-13-12: Wilson667Sebrof, So should I be looking somewhere in the 15 to 20 watt amp range (Almero a318b used?) for my size room? I guess I should also ask what the difference in sound charter would be between the Jolida and a SET or SEP amp? I th... | |
Amplifier for Tekton speakers 10-12-12: Wilson667Also can the Lores really sound good on less 15 to 20 watts (i.e.2-3 watts)in a room 20x17x9. I listen to mostly rock,jazz and am starting to get into more small acoustic stuff.I ran a 3-watt 2A3 SET amp with the Lores in a 12' ... | |
Amplifier for Tekton speakers I have used the Manley Stingray and a DIY 2A3 amp, both sounded good | |
how long should tubes last 10-11-12: MarakanetzI'd think of another question why simpliest vacuum triode such as 300b worth a lot more than penthode KT88?My guess would be that because the Triodes are not used in guitar amps (and many fewer audio amps) the economies of scal... | |
weakest link? what would you upgrade? I don't really understand. You seem to like your current set up. Why change?I don't know what percent of people on these forums make changes only when they are not happy with what they have, but I imagine it's pretty low. | |
