Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering
As far as I am concerned I believe that measurements do matter...to a point. If measurements were all that mattered then tube amps and preamps could not compete with the SS versions as they do not measure as well. Also LPs would not compete with C...

213runnin1) Your post said "frequency graph" and not range or response. So that is why some people said that you are wrong about other manufacturers posting graphs. 2) You are wrong again.      Tekton does include frequency numbers on some of thei...

jh901, how can I not take it personally when you use "sales pitch' and 'free advertising". 1st, no sales pitch, I just stated the facts. The SGM 2015 was mentioned several times and I just let everyone know a little about it. I never gave my opini...

ctsooner, send me an email and we will set you up with a demo when it works for you. Just so everyone has the price of the SGM, $16,000. There are several that are more expensive and many others that cost less. But sometimes you do get what you pa...

Pete, that is great to hear. That is not only what I expected but exactly what Rick said would happen after I spoke to him to confirm my thoughts. But the best may yet come. I say may but Rick says it will take at least 200+ hours sans the P10. An...

Jay, the best I can say is that the "Hemisphere" is "half"/scaled down version of an "Ultimate Reference Helix". At the present time there are "Helix" and Hemisphere" that stand alone and apart from the rest of the line. They are related to each o...

jay23, I think you might be misconstruing what is on the web site. However when I talk to Rick I will ask him if he can clarify a bit. Now, let me see if I can explain about the 10amp "limit" NOT, on the Hemisphere.There is NO current restriction ...

Pete , I spoke to Rick today about how you had the Hemisphere plugged into the P10 and have now plugged it straight into the wall.I asked him how many hours would it need to reach its optimum now that it is plugged into the wall.He said it is like...

jay 23, from the HFC web site, for the MC-6 Hemisphere. [newly developed waveguide system we call the "Hemisphere". Derived from the successful Helix technology used in our very top-end products, the Hemisphere has been specialized for AC power ...

Pete, thanks for the update. Yes, please give the Hemisphere more time before you decide. IME you should give it at least another 60 hours but another 100 hours would be ideal. From my experience the HFC products can produce a rollercoaster ride o...

Hi jay23. I will try and give some limited incite to your questions but others might be able to more justice then I can.Q1) While I am still waiting myself on this question I have spoken to Rick of HFC about this.The MC-6 is a true entry level bar...
