Tekton Double Impacts
Hi Charlies,Please remember that I just ran the experiment of driving the Triode Lab SET 2A3 amplifier with a very good tube based preamplifier through the Ulf's and this combo was very good, but did not have the ultimate magic of the combo of the...

Hey Evolvist,If you can evaluate the overall sound quality of Jeffery's system based on what you hear on that video you have some extraordinary auditory abilities, indeed! I'll call later this morning my editor at hometheatereview.com and highly r...

Hey Everybody,I want to share my respect for the honesty/integrity of Micheal's "field report" of what happened in his system between the DI's and his Wilson Sasha speakers.  He is my favorite staff reviewer on the Stereo Times website and always ...

Hey Charles,I do not use a DB meter to see how loud the loudest passages are when playing music.  However, even massive pipe organ played at volume levels that pressurize my very large space are easily achieved with this combo.  I get that owners ...

Forgot to share the following:1)  Ran the experiment of using the Micro-ZOTL as an integrated amplifier driving the Ulf's.  It was great, just like on the DI's with the added benefit of more headroom/volume when needed!  Again , this shows that th...

Hi Charles,Micheal's preamp and amplifier are VAC tube gear.  Yes, it will be interesting what his experience will be.

Hey everybody,Just had over for a listening session, Mike Kay of Audio Archon who's a Tekton Design Retailer (now becoming famous for his killer power cords), "audio" Ezra who has on order a pair of DI SE's, and Micheal Wright the excellent staff ...

Hey evolvist,Yup, you should be good to go!  I would suggest a slight toe-in so the speakers are on the outside of your head.  Both the DI's and the Ulf's gave me the best center fill and image precision with this small adjustment vs straight ahea...

Please note this is not a personal attack on Jeffery just a strong comment on his setup of his Ulf's:Are you freaking serious!  I would not setup an inexpensive pair of speakers the way this 12K world class speaker is placed in this room.  Any rea...

Hi Charlies,Yes, I'm positive that they are more sensitive/efficient then the DI's.  The Ulf's are even better then the DI's at playing at very low volumes without losing any dynamics.  I also get to higher volume levels at lower positions on my v...

Hey David-ten,I agree with what Kenny said about more drivers lowering the noise floor.  I would add by using much higher parts in the crossover, higher grade drivers, and an the heavier/thicker construction of the overall cabinet are contributing...

After a long night listening session another sonic virtue was very apparent as the Ulf's burn-in.  The DI's in my experience are one of the best speakers at reproducing with uncanny accuracy the venue of were the music was recorded.  The Ulf's tak...

For Mac48025,After I reviewed the ZOTL-40 amplifier I bought it and it became my reference amp being driven by the Micro-ZOTL.  It's a wonderful piece, like Eric, David Berning is a true genius.  I found out recently I like the 40 even more with E...

Hey Guys,Got about 15 hours on the Ulf's and the level of low end dynamics is blossoming and the level of liquidity is spreading like melting butter in a slightly warmed cast iron pan!I was playing an album by the great jazz pianist, Cyrus Chestnu...

Hey wschee,I do.  The DI's just scale up regarding macro-dynamics and to the size of the acoustic space where the music was recorded.
