Hi I am reading this thread with great interest.
I am living in Denmark and have just ordered a pair of DI. It was a very hard decision with many sleepless nights, no kidding. The price for getting them to Denmark is around $1100 and I has been asking the Tekton FB for DI owners in Denmark, Sweden and North Germany but with no luck.
Now I just has to wait and see if I have for $4500 speakers that I don't like.
I am listing to blues and classic music and this is the gear I am using
Marantz AV8805, 2 x Emotiva XPA-5 gen2 PS Audio Detect and some ok cables. Tidal is my source of music.
I had a pair of Goldenear Triton Two+ for a month. There where very good but I didn't like voices on them. Then I borrowed a pair of B&W 702 S2. Very sweet sounding voices and guitar are GREAT but the are missing the body of the music.
Now I just hope that the DI can do the job. Giving the bass foundation for reggae and big orchestra music and the intimite of a good blues recording.
