| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Steidlguitars: fair enough. Obviously the product was good enough to WOW me and that is not easy. There are not many products that have excited me like that... and I've had way too many! Listen carefully to Cpapace comments - reconciles nicely wit... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Restless_times: really? Was my Lore review that far off? Did you not say that you were going to purchase a second pair you liked them so much? Did my review help you in making that purchase decision? Then why would you doubt my Pendragon review...... | |
| Review: Dynaudio Focus 220 Mk2 Speaker What you are describing with Dynaudio is 100% true.I have owned:Dynaudio Focus 220 II (briefly, a short stint and traded for C1's)Dynaudio C1'sDynaudio Audience 70, 42Home auditioned Focus 140'sIndeed, they need time to break in! I can remem C1's ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Please understand there is nothing in my review of the Lore or the Pendragon that needs to be rectified. Let's have some common sense - NO $2,500 speaker is going to have $10,000 speaker build quality, but in case of the Tekton's they do rival muc... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore I have another very relevant point I want to make... some of you remember, I drove my Lores with 25wpc Quicksilver Mini Mites. It was a perfect match and my recollection of the sound was one that was about as perfect as it could have been. That wa... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Hey guys! I suppose I need to clarify a few things. Telescope is right on. My dealer buddy ended up taking on trade a pair of Greybeard KB 2/1 speakers and offered them at an insane price because the co. is out of business and frankly, most people... | |
| Tekton Design Lore I can't answer to the amp upgrade. It sounds nice but I just don't know without hearing it. You should be open minded to trying a couple different amps with any speaker you get (if funds permit), and you will do well. But P-dragon vs VR3... it sho... | |
| Review: Tekton Design Pendragon Speaker There have not been "official" specs listed; however, the manufacturer has given me a verbal of 98db efficient, and the low end 10db lower then Lore (i.e., 20hz). I have not measured the P-dragon but it certainly has more weight then Lore... and f... | |
| Tekton Design Lore Jwilk - to a large extent, yes I believe that is true... attributes of tubes vs. solid state is what I described. I just don't remember it being as pronounced with other (conventional) setups I've had. But I can tell you, I don't think you would b... | |
| Tekton Design Lore I ran my P-dragons with an Adcom GFA 5500 (200w) for a while during the first 100 hours. They had a big, open sound with the Adcom but it was missing the tone and upper mid bass articulation that I get w/ my 12 watt Xindak tube amp, and surprising... | |
| Review: Tekton Design Pendragon Speaker I have the treatment (about 7 69x24 1" panels) in the corners (behind the speakers) and on the back wall. Since I am sitting about 6ft from the speakers, the highs do not seem affected by it much. It does, however, tighten up the bass. My room is ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Re: eminence thing. The Katz 1 has a Fostex driver, so perhaps Eric has something up his sleeve to pull this off. Interesting... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore "My reason for switching is to get a little more forgiving speaker for lower quality recordings"The lores will be perfect at this. That's an area that is critical for me, because my inventory of "audiophile" recordings is practically nothing. For ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Cwazz - boy your post is just a but sarcastic, is it not? Where is the resentment coming from? You sound like I moved from a Tekton to a different type of speaker... I simply moved up the line... similar sonics just more of everything. Also, here'... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore CWazz sure has a way w/ words. Charlie - glad you chimed in because I wanted to let you know I tried an Adcom amp with the Pendragons, and I could not believe how much better of a match my 12 watt Xindak EL84 amp is! In fact, the 12 watt tube amp ... |
