| Tekton Impact Monitors I did tinker with the positioning some. I have the Tektons 42" from the front wall 24" from side walls measured from the back and outside of the cabinets, and about 8 feet apart measured from the center tweeters. The center tweeter is about in li... | |
| Tekton Impact Monitors I'll add that the Tektons have really nice smooth highs and dig out all the details of the music and I can hear the details at modest volume levels, the EP 4.7s sound best at higher volumes and have different presentation being open baffle. The mu... | |
| Tekton Impact Monitors Hi guys, I only tried my Odyssey Extreme SE monoblocks. These are warm to neutral I think campared to other amps I've owned. I have an Emerald Physics EP 100.2 SE that I use for the mids and tweeter of the 4.7, those have more sparkle in the top e... | |
| Tekton Impact Monitors I've had Impact monitors for a couple weeks now. I think they offer very good clarity, resolution and are very efficient, but comparing to my Emerald Physics EP 4.7 the bass is a little unnatural sounding to me. Also I think the EP 4.7 portray the... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I agree jcarcopo, I really am glad I bought my Impact monitors and this thread helped me decide. The talk of ridiculously priced cables, crossover parts etc takes away credibility of the posters who praised the speakers. And yes I tried some expen... | |
| Anyone else having trouble getting cartridges back they sent for repair? A while back, a year or so I think, Axel said he tried repairing the suspension of the 205C a couple times but wasn't satisfied with the results. I thanked him for his efforts and said you can just send them back if you want and I'll try and find ... | |
| Anyone else having trouble getting cartridges back they sent for repair? Well beat is not the same as being ripped off or scammed. So not beat ripped off is better definition of what happened. | |
| What with or about irreparable cartridge? Well mine had suspension failures, but was hoping he could repair. It's not an easy thing to accomplish sometimes with certain types of cartridges like the Technics models. | |
| What with or about irreparable cartridge? He has two of my cartridges for over a year. Technics 100C and P205CMKIII. He says hard to repair so I guess he gave up, but at least you'd think he'd send me back my cartridges! | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Is Axel still around? Has Two of my cartridges for almost a year, didn't reply to my last week. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I am pleased with the results from my budget cables, such as VHAudio Pulsar and DIY silver etc. I like to focus on speaker setup, room treatments and bass calibration to improve sound quality. Wouldn't it be a shame to get caught up in the cable g... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I like how each time he adds another cable he claims more massive "sound quality" gains. Even after his system was already sounding so unbelievably mind blowing, blah blah blah or whatever Complete over the top BS. You really need to know cables c... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz So these cables are defective by design, unless lowering the output signal is what you think a cable should do. I guess a cable that interferes with the signal that much would sound a bit different, so easily heard difference must mean some magica... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz No wonder audiophiles in general are looked at as ignorant nut jobs. The average Joe with common sense, audio enthusiasts with basic electronics knowledge and of course engineers know the cable "performance" claims written about in this thread are... | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? If you have a sub, you can try budget PA speakers. The Behringer B212XL and B215XL, Mackie C200 and c300z are models that seem liked for home use. These are high efficiency compression horn speakers so can play loud without strain and are very dyn... |
