| Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts? Thanks for sharing that, olesno. That's my story as well. I just bought some SEs and look forward to having them in my room in the next couple of weeks. I liked the Double Impacts so much that I couldn't resist trying the SE version, so some lucky... | |
| Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts? @stereo5 Few speakers will match the gorgeous Daedalus speakers in terms of aesthetics, but that is not as much a priority for me as it is for some. The Double Impacts may not be "eye candy," but I think they look fine and the sound is excellent.@... | |
| Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts? And I sold Daedalus Ulysses, which also fall short of the $30,000, but which many people (including me) feel are excellent speakers. | |
| Line magnetic 508 with Tekton Double Impacts. Match Up Greetings, all.I have indeed had some nice preamps in the past, several of which I would dearly love to have now to try with my LM 508. Alas, they are long gone. I have been running my 508 strictly as an integrated since I bought it and have been ... | |
| Just received the Double Impacts (upgraded version) Congrats, wadec76. I have the same speakers and had a similar response when hearing them for the first time. The really good news is that your Double Impacts are going to get better still after you get a couple hundred hours on them, maybe even a ... | |
| Looking for speaker suggestions Before you drop 10K on a pair of speakers, see if you can find someone within driving distance who has a pair of Tekton Double Impacts, especially if they are well broken in. Not only are they fantastic speakers, but you can also use your choice o... | |
| If your system were a car! @roxy54 Actually, raymonda got it right the first time. He is using the subjunctive case to construct a hypothetical, in which case the correct verb choice is "were" and not "was."I'd recommend exercising some caution in correcting other members' ... | |
| Racks made of wood Ah, those were the days! I built my rack back in the day according to these specifications and it is still as good as new. Highly recommended. | |
| Best used or new DAC under $3500 +1 on the Lampizator AtlanticI've had mine for about a year and agree with Shedder's description. A wonderful, very musical DAC. | |
| Best tidings to Gonners old and new. Welcome back, 4yanx! Glad to see your moniker on here again, and happier still to hear that you are doing well. Congratulations on your engagement! | |
| Pass Labs XA30.5 -> Line Magnetic 508ia? I guess I lucked out buying my LM 508ia. I found a dealer in North Carolina (where I live) who was extremely friendly and responsive before, during, and after the sale, and the unit itself is just spectacular in every way, especially after upgradi... | |
| $3000 Speaker Search @bassdude2 I don't doubt that these speakers are excellent, but when you say that "nothing else mentioned comes close to any of these," is this conclusion based upon extensive listening comparisons you have done with ALL of these speakers? I am ju... | |
| Support table or shelf for turntable @slaw Get a grip, man. With every post you seem a bit more unhinged. | |
| Dealers hijacking the discussions Sadly, Audiogon is not what it used to be. Constant shilling by dealers was not tolerated in the past. Where is Audiofeil when you need him? | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @charles1dad Hi Charles,Ordinarily, I would make the same assumption, especially with a member with Shadorne's lengthy track record here. On the other hand, the "Tekton backlash" seems to have inspired quite a lot of comments made by people who ad... |
