| Tekton Double Impacts Hi nitewulf,I believe your assumption regarding a mid-range/high frequency section produced by AMT's would be better than the DI's seven driver array is not valid. My Lawrence Audio Cello loudspeakers use two highly regarded AMT transducers for t... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey corelli,I do not have the Melody 300B anymore. I have nothing but respect for Melody's products, very well built and they sound great. That particular amp was my reference for about a year in my big system. So, shortly I hope to have in ho... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Gentlemen,I'm amending my conclusion regrading that the SET 2A3 was some what lacking in over Db levels/dynamics/transparency compared to the Micro-ZOTL used as an amplifier.I discovered after I posted that I had not total disengaged a volume cont... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Just got through, about five hours, of listening to a SET 2A3 (3.5 watts into 4 ohms) being driven buy the Micro-ZOTL as a preamp into the DI's. This combo was very sweet, colorful, rich with lots of "meat on the bone" imaging. However, it did n... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey mac48025,For my personal taste both in music, mainly acoustic jazz, and volume levels, mainly based on the size of the instruments/singer, along with dynamics about 95% of the time I'm fine without the ZOTL-40 amp. For a matter of fact I'm go... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey sproket75,You are more the welcome to come hear the DI's at my home. Just send me an Email at terryjaylondon@gmail.comJust put back the ZOTL-40 amplifier back in the system for some listeners who wanted some Jimi Hendrix and James Brown at "p... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Gentlemen,The combo of the LTA Micro-ZTOL/ZOTL-40 offers some of the most beautiful sound, regardless of $, that I have ever had in my home system. However, when compared to the MicroZOTL used as an integrated amplifier driving the standard DI's ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey cmss2000,My go to man for the best quality tubes is Brent Jesse Audio. I trust the quality of his tubes and he's great to talk to regarding getting the sound you are looking for in different brands of tubes. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Congrats cmss2000,As mac48025 mentioned the spikes are to be found in one of end caps and you really don't know what your speakers can sound like with out them. If you did not special order your pair with grills, there are none to find.Concerning... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey david_ten,If you have not read my review on HTR on Tekton's very innovative Sigma OB speaker, which is an absolutely wonderful sounding speaker, and I gave a PRODUCT OF A YEAR AWARD, to get the details how Eric figured out how to avoid any ele... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey snopro,I too have had virtually all the highly regarded 67SN7's in my collection, including the Sylvania 1950's bad boys, and for my taste I still greatly prefer the TungSol 1940's tube. I fine them to the most natural/real sounding in their ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts david-tenNo, there would be no amplification section in a pure Pre/DAC combo. Remember the Micro-ZOTL is a line-stage , head phone amp, and a SET speaker amplifier with connections for speaker wires. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hi corelli,I have never heard that specific Audio Note amplifier. I have experienced both AN of England and Japan very expensive amplifiers and really don't think they are worth the $ compared to both Concert Fidelity and LTA pre-amps and amplifi... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts My dear friend and AUDIOGON member Allan, he was the one who hosted the last Chicago Audiophile Society meeting at his house to show case his pair of DI's, was patiently shocked at what he heard tonight with the setup we have been discussing recen... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hi gentlemen,If you think you guys are surprised, just imagine my shock at hearing this the last couple of days!As far as playing "complex symphonic orchestral music" how about Copland's "FANFARE FOR THE COMMON MAN" at over 100Db with prefect clar... |
