Tekton Double Impacts

Evolvist, David and I were both stunned at the improvement realized after running the Room Perfect set-up. I had the same reaction in two different rooms and with the Harbeth 40.1 and AZ Crescendo speakers. One of my rooms was already well "treated" with all manner of room treatments, but the room correction just took it to the next level of enjoyment.

Fancinsting technology that will only get better!

@ Charles1dad & mac48025,

I truly appreciate your feedback on the LTA MZ2-S and the CSL comparison. I have the CSL and the Melody P2688 (also based on the 101D tube) on my want list. I was hoping the MZ2-S would equal or better the CSL so that I can save some money. I guess if one has a small budget, the MZ2-S is no brainer, however, if one wants something higher, the CSL should be considered. The Lyngdorf TDAI-2170 has also piqued my interest and I have to find a way to audition one.

Thank you.

Muzikmann,

i believe the CSL/Frankenstein combination is quite special, enjoying a synergy that makes them tough to beat. What baffles me is how good the MZ2 and Frank's sounded in my system. It didn't sound lifeless at all at my place yet it was clearly less dynamic and alive in Charles' system. The more I think about it the more baffling it becomes. Could the speakers be the difference? Now I'm wondering what the CSL/Frankenstein combo would sound like with my DI's. Even better than the MZ2 and Frank's sounded? I'd have to imagine so. Yikes, I didn't think it could sound better. 

For now I'll have fun trying the Consinance 2A3 in my system. Thanks to teajay for letting me try it out. The Consonance or Aric amps could be a great option to tide me over until I get a big boy amp.......unless I get really lucky and either of those amps turns out to be my forever amp.  Wouldn't that be nice?

Prayers with you, I'm normally in Boca Raton, but my wife and I currently are at our other house in GA, yeah, right on the coast. Likely headed to interior Ga...

I really enjoyed reading your post. Grannyring knows his stuff; if I can pull myself away from tubes I owe it to myself to try the Lyngdorf 2170. Best, mikirob

Hi Mikirob,
Do me a favor, if you do decide to audition or buy a Lyngdorf 2170 please let me know your listening impressions.   You and I seem to approach and listen to music in a very similar manner.  I'm opened minded to the new and different and have given many types of audio products a listen.

Often I find that the hype and promises don't quite hit the market and that hyperbole is alive and well.  To be perfectly fair the Lyngdorf could be a bird of a different feather and that would be quite a special development. 

I do not doubt what others hear testify to but I don't know how they listen or what they seek or prefer musically.  I "think" that I have some reasonable idea of what draws you into music on an emotional level and this aspect is key for me.

I've listened to audio components highly praised by others that were not nearly as impressive to me. I'm not suggesting by any means my ears or listening skills are superior to anyone else,  rather it is a very personal experience and I well know what I like. 

If the Lyngdorf the can really expose and get to the musical soul and emotional connecting beauty similar to what I currently experience this would be something major for a one box product.  You never know.
