Tekton Double Impacts

evolvist, of course you're welcome to come by. I got the impression you had auditioned the Lyngdorf and didn't like it. But if you want to hear it with the DIs, that's great. I also have absorption panels we can play with in the room if you want to do that. I don't think we could do the ceiling would need some velcro up there :-)  is going to happen, but floor/walls would be no problem.

Bullitt, With the room correction off do you sometimes feel you have an exaggerated low end being too close to the corners with your D.I.'s?

Should have stated close to the corner , not "too".  Sorry about that. It was drawing a conclusion on my part.

Liked your earlier post. Relevant questions.

I really liked the Lyngdorf when I had it on audition.The only reason I didn't choose it was because I had bought into the Chord philosophy at the time, but then their business model proved to dig for cash to back up that philosophy. Also, at the time, I was still in between headphone and speaker listening, leaning more to the headphone side of things, and the Chord DAVE has a headphone section that is second to none. Now that I've gotten away from USB, however, I'm not sure if there is any turned back.

That said, for the price/performance the Lyngdorf was at the top of the list. I'm glad to hear that you went that direction.

I just want to let everyone in here know that when Bob says he's getting a great sound with the Lyngdorf, you can trust his ears. Even going to what he had in his old front end, Bob had managed to turn a proper home theater room (and a very nice one, at that), into a fantastic two-channel room, as well.It's not often that I've heard people do both.

Now I'm giddy to hear the magic he has going on in there now.

@david_ten  - I think when people hear the Lyngdorf in their systems, and that well implemented Class D kicks in, the amp section, itself, imparts a slight warmth that sounds very tube-ish, very analog. This is what the Lyngdorf is tuned to. It's also what the D-Sonic Class D amps are tuned to, with rave reviews.  

Think about this. I emailed back and forth with the Lyngdorf, and the designer (I can;t remember his name at the moment) said that he could have implemented Class A/B into the design, with just a little bit larger chassis and heatsink on both sides. It wasn't for aesthetic reasons that he didn't go that route. He went the rout that he did because he was able to tune the gear to capture a more analog sound, as well as he thinks Class D is the future.

He might be right. We're hearing about it all over this thread.
