| Speaker size and soundstage Such fantastic input; greatly appreciated! I changed the setup yesterday by swapping out entry level cables with higher end cables. The dynamics in both speaker changed dramatically with both opening way up. The Tektons now have much greater exten... | |
| Speaker size and soundstage Thanks for the input all! Such an interesting journey to find the perfect speaker match with my room (can’t change), my gear, and listening preferences.I just moved the Dyns further away from the wall, reduced toe in, and moved closer to the liste... |
