Who makes the highest quality tube amps?
Is budget a factor? 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Since this is pretty much the defacto thread for all things Tekton, I thought I would mention Eric has posted a pic of his new Pendragon HT system. No info other than a pic - he mentions to call him directly for more info. I have not had any probl... 
Best rock song of all times
Almarg"Surprised that after 153 posts no one has yet mentioned "Light My Fire" by the Doors."JperryI did not see LA Woman either. Not a lot of Doors fans I guess.Ok, a tangent to this thread: Artists not yet mentioned:Doors, Beach Boys, Aretha... 
Best beer
My favorite beer also happens to be a seasonal beer available only around Christmas - Lagunitas Sucks. Not the most charming name but there's a story behind it.Another terrific, seasonal find, but very limited distribution is Pliny The Younger fro... 
Best rock song of all times
While I will always choose Gimme Shelter, or Sweet Home Alabama as my favorites, I think Twist and Shout probably best meets your definition. And I don't even care that much for The Beatles so go figure. 
decware err radial speakers
I visited the gentleman, he goes by ZIGY over on the Decware forum, who makes the ERR speakers and his own design, the HR-1, last year at his home. His dedicated listening room is small but very well treated. Listening is basically done in the nea... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
I stepped away from this thread for a month after making my post about Glenn Beck talking about Tekton only to come back to read some really amazing comments. Amazing in that I only mention about Glenn talking about Tekton, nothing else in my post...

Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Since acquiring my Rubys, I've wondered about the Omni Harmonizer. I'd love to hear your impressions after you've had a chance to evaluate. I wouldn't have thought to mate it with Ohms.+1

Would you mind listing your equipment and room size? After 6 weeks now, what are your impressions? 
Speakers around 4K: Ascend vs Tekton vs Vapor
If you want to get it "right the first time", then an in-home audition is a must. Tekton has a 30-day trial period, Zu a 60 trial.

Glenn Beck talks about Tekton. 
The owner of Grant Fidelity is battling cancer
Having lived through a cancer ordeal with my own wife 11 years ago, my heart goes out to Ian and his family. I wish him all the best. 
Your thoughts on Tekton M-lore speakers
For what it's worth, I spoke to Eric not too long ago. His preference? The M-Lore over the Lore in an HT-set-up. He believes one gets the most bang-for-the-buck with the M-Lore. Your room, equipment, whether you will run a sub, and personal prefer... 
Review of Tekton Pendragon-Se Loudspeaker
Audioman58 - thanks for the review.I don't recall, Audioman58, if you heard the Pendragons in stock form?It is interesting in talking with Eric how he downplays the mods he offers basically saying the improvements are at the margin while other use...
