Tekton Double Impacts

racer - I appreciate the contact, but since I heard them myself, I know what they sound like and I like them. Not sure what the situation was with the speakers you had.

Now on to a more fun topic:

I spent most of last night listening to a variety of different types of music (blues, rock, jazz, soul, classical) that were either recorded in the studio or live in different venues to further evaluate  the Ulf's for my up coming review.  It became very difficult to keep my "reviewers hat" on because this speaker allows you to relax and connect to the emotions that the musicians are conveying in their performance.  Yes, all the parameters of world reference level standards (effortless dynamics, total transparency allowing all the micro-details to be easily heard, accurate sound-staging with air and space between the players, beautiful timbres/colors, and a bottom end that totally pressurizes the room) are done by this magnificent speaker, without it sounding analytical or losing the feeling in the music.

Another amazing aspect is how, just like the DI's, this VERY big speaker just disappears like the best of the breed of world class two way monitors do if set-up the right way.  Can a 12K speaker be considered a bargain?  If it out performs virtually anything on the current market, which I believe the Ulf's do, the answer is yes!  Two more listeners that I know personally have sold off their speakers that retail for around 30K and replaced them with the DI's, so the owners of even more expensive speakers might really trip out when they hear is offered by the Ulf's compared to their 100K transducers.   

Thanks for your listening session updates and findings. And YES, it's a pleasant diversion to be focused on the positive. Appreciate it!

First off, as owner of both the DI's and Enzo's I can confidently say both are great sounding speakers. My Enzo's were purchased in 2013. While the DI's are a definite step up from the Enzo's, the Enzo's are the reason I ordered the DI's without knowing a thing about them. The Enzo's blew me away, giving me the confidence to trust that Eric had an even bigger winner in the DI's. 

Thanks for the update teajay. Sounds like you're having a great time with the Ulfberhts. I'm not surprised they sound amazing. Are you still driving them with the MZ2 and 2A3? 

Hey mac48025,

I have tried different combos, the Micro-ZOTL with different ampilifers, and the 2A3 no doubt is my favorite, both on the DI's and now the Ulf's.  I had no problems in any way with the 2A3 driving the DI's and since the Ulf's are even easier to drive its a match made in heaven.  It's hard for me to believe that when I go back to a great 300B SET amplifier it kinda sounds more like reproduced music then when through the Triode Lab 2A3 amplifier.
