Tekton Double Impacts

Kenny,
In Tom's room the Double Impacts can provide a good sound stage rendition and avoid the sound emanating from the face of the speaker effect. This ability varied with the recording as one would expect. 

Tom, your system did a commendable job of distinguishing the tone of Art Pepper's and Cannonball Adderley's  (Miles CD) alto saxophones.  These two musicians play the same instrument with clearly different sound/voices.

Very good information and assessment of some fine gear.

Art pepper and Lee Morgan are my 2 favorites for a very long time.

mac,
Sounds like you now know without any doubts the sonics that you want to get and I wish you the best of luck to obtain this nice gear as your budget allows.

I can definitely say for me that is so nice to find my way back too that wonderfull Dht set sound,these kind of amps convey such purity,natural tone and timbre and are just so darn engaging.

I could say when I turn my Set on my left brain turns off.😃

Enjoy that music brothers,

Kenny.

I have purchased a Rogue Audio St-100 amp to drive my Double Impacts I had the Emotiva XPA-1 Gen2 mono block amps prior .
The Emotivas are lightning fast with Dynamics and Bass Slam that is out of this world and ,of course WAY  more power than ever  needed. The   Xpa-1 s have complete control of the Woofers , and have the start and stop control to the  Nth degree.
The only problem with the XPA-1 is that they can be very cold and sterile sounding at times  ,depending on the recording 
Enter the St-100.
It has 75-80 % of the Bass slam of the XPA-1s  , but also has a sweetness , or non-analytical, presentation that really shines. 
I would bet money , that many people would not know that it is a tube based amp, if they hear it without seeing or knowing  before hand.
The St100 has all of the best attributes of SS amps but gives you the smooth , sweet top end and Midrange  that only tubes an deliver.
In other words,  it pretty much has the bass slam of solid state with the smooth  sweet presentation that is only attainable from Tube amps.
Its early on, but do far the Rogue is a winner .

Kenny,
Your comments about the 2A3 amplifier  are  particularly interesting because I know how pleased you were/are with the LTA ZOTL 40 amplifier driving the Double Impacts.
