| Pass Labs XA 25 Cables Hey kw6,Two points:1) The F6 amplifier produces 50 watts into 4 ohms, the XA-25 when it was measured (Stereophile Review) produced 80 watts into 8 ohms and close to over 120 watts into 4 ohms-way over the very conservative rating done by Pass Labs... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey David,Mr. Chavira's review is spot on regarding the performance of the Impact Monitor. The only caveat I would add on, based on my experience with reviewing them and purchasing them for my smaller system, is that you really have to use a refe... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey werther,It's too soon to tell, Azra's Ulf Be's have to break-in and his upstream gear is brand new, so therefore let's let him get some hours on the total rig.My system with the Ulf's sits in a much larger acoustic space and is tuned to be bea... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Everybody,Just wanted to share that Allan and I just setup for Audio Arza his new pair of Ulf Be's this morning. In the past I have found that speaker designs that use Beryllium drivers often had an edge/ bite that I found annoying after list... | |
| Pass Labs XA 25 Cables Hey Kw6,I'm not a fan of digital preamps, which still cannot provide what a great tube based preamp can as far as tonality and space for my ears. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey canibefrank,I wrote a review on them for hometheaterreview.com, gave them five stars, nick-named them the "DI Jr's", and bought the review pair for my smaller system. If you want the details why go to my review and take a look. | |
| Pass Labs XA 25 Cables Hey Kw6,I still use the Linear Tube Audio Micro-ZOTL as my reference linestage with the upgraded power supply. This combo is the best I have found so far, and the both are very reasonable priced compared to other pieces I have reviewed in this sy... | |
| the difference between tekton pendragon and double impact Hi scarbpaul12,The short answer is YES. Eric's new break through design used in the DI's is a qualitative shift from what you hear in your Pendragons. I have reviewed the DI's, ULF's, and Impact monitors and they all received five stars because ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Patrick,I reviewed the Impact Monitors for hometheaterreview.com, along with the DI's and Ulf's, and can tell you that the stand mounts do not lack for bass extension and power. If you don't have the space for the bigger brothers you will not... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey xenophon,Congrats on your choice of the Mother Load preamplifier. Aric is a very talented designer/builder, besides being a good guy, who builds great performing high quality gear at very reasonable prices. After I reviewed his KT-88 SET amp... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT-3 - Impressions of a Great CD Transport Hey snopro,Now would not be a good time to review what seems to be a great sounding DAC, mainly because I'm just starting to write a review on a $2,000.00 piece that completely out performed my reference of four years, the Concert Fidelity hybrid ... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT-3 - Impressions of a Great CD Transport Hey bluewolf,Just wanted to share that a professional review has been setup between Alvin and I for hometheaterreview.com on the CDT-3 MK2. I had received many inquires from my readers on this transport. I just recently became aware of your very... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey rubytuesday,Congrats on your SE's! You are in for a real sonic treat this afternoon.I'm glad that you mentioned Mike Kay of Audio Archon, he really is one of the great guys/vendors of high-end audio gear. He's extremely knowledgeable, honest... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hi mofojo,As you know everything is influenced by "the law of diminishing returns", including our hobby. However, the SE's version of the DI's takes this great speaker to a higher degree of finesse and qualitatively does everything better then th... | |
| Pass Labs XA 25 Cables Hey Mark,I wrote a review on the Pass Labs XA-25 for hometheaterreview.com and believe it's one of the most beautiful SS amps I have ever had in my system. I bought the review piece were it powers my reference system this very day. I would recom... |
