| Tekton Double Impacts Gentlemen,Wanted to share that I'm into about nine hours of listening to a Triode Lab 2A3s SET amplifier I have in house for review for hometheaterreview.com. Of course this amplifier is no were close to being fully burn in. Yet, being driven by... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey mac48025,CONGRATS! It is amazing what the Micro-ZOTL sounds like as an amplifier driving the DI's. As far as Kenny's question regarding how the Micro-ZOTL sounds like driving SS amps is it brings its virtues to the overall sound when I used ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Guys,I have professionally reviewed and owned gear from both Melody and Audio Space and can share that each company has very high standards when it comes to the quality of parts, innovative design, and build.The Melody AN-300B was my reference... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey corelli,The Melody AN-211 is a great amp, both on it's sound and build quality. However, I'm more a 300B fan then 211 based amplifiers. However, if you want a little less romance/color -meat on the bones and more quickness/speed, but still v... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hi everybody,Just want to share, many Emails asking this question, that a decision was made that instead of Eric sending me a pair of SE Double Impacts to review for hometheaterreview.com I'll be getting the much larger and brand new model called ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hi Guys,I have been getting scores of Emails regarding which is the "BEST" combination of these three possibilities: 1) the Micro-ZOTL by its self 2) the Micro-ZOTL/ZOTL-40 amp 3) the Micro-ZOTL/2A3 amp to drive the DI's.All sound terrific, all ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Charles,Not only is fair to claim both of us are Jazz lovers I have Lee Morgan and Lester Young tattoos on my arms to prove it!All the gear that you mention is still in-house in my smaller up-stairs system. It's a great solid state system, ho... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey guys,Wanted to share after many hours of fun listening, that now my favorite combo driving the Dl's is the LTA Micro-ZOTL with a SET 2A3 amplifier offering 3.5 watts at 4 ohms. Now get this! This SET 2A3 retails for only $1,200.00! It's the... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hi Mofojo,Yes, such as Pass Labs XA-60.8 mono-blocks/Accuphase-450 and it brought its special magic to these SS amplifiers. When I was taking it around for people to hear it in their systems there were both tubed and SS based, the owners all agre... | |
| 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... |
