Mac, might be on my radar.  It would be nice to meet you guys.  Send me a PM on when you were thinking and your location.  Just make sure it's not when the Wolverines are playing!

Agreed!

Thanks for the "better late than never response" snovosel! I could not agree more with your way of thinking when it comes to auditioning equipment in your own listening space. You can read and research all you want but until you try that speaker i...

Given the height of the speaker, the closest thing to a stand might by various platforms or footers.  Too bad this long thread doesn't have an index of some sort!  Some have used Sistrum platforms, Herbies Gliders, Gaia footers, generic spikes, So...

Wow, talk about the ultimate Tekton-fest!  There's not Beryllium in your future is there David??

I can't imagine an interface problem with your amp.  Some have enjoyed the DI's with as little as a 1 watt preamp!  So this is an easy to drive speaker.  As has been said many times over the course of this long thread, if you love the sound of tha...

Thanks David. Perhaps my only claim to semi-fame. Not that I had much to do with it. I just asked the question--and you know the rest. Thanks to all that have made this thread informative and so much fun!

@stereo5I agree, sometimes things do not add up.  It just reinforces the point that your room is the single biggest factor sometimes.I had a pair of 7" Scanspeak revelators with an aircirc tweeter and high end crossover--the VR-33's gave overall a...

I have owned the VSA VR-33 speakers for a number of years now.  I have not heard your other two considerations.I recall when I first received these speakers, I had high hopes for them.  They were replacing a pair of Mirage M-5si's.  Now the Mirage... 
Small Room. Go for it or forget about it?
Once had a small room with great results using a pair of DIY Vifa two ways with a first order series crossover.  Speakers pulled out almost halfway into room, listening chair against back wall.  Sounded great with huge sound stage.  Other speakers...

@lpretiring   Interesting observation.  Really great systems continue to please over time.  Most of us in this hobby are prone to looking--it's human nature.  But when I sit down and listen to the system I have assembled with my DI's, I am always ...

Glad you guys found a great match for your Tektons.@bullit5094  I suspect you have posted this prior, but curious what other amps you tried with your Tektons.

@mac48025Good to hear from you Tom and glad you are still happy with your system.  I'm still very much enjoying my DI's but dang, I agree, the Encores do tempt.  My second system could be a great fit with the new Perfect SET's.  Great minds think ...

@snovosel Nice post. I read your post on AudioCircle where you upgraded your Spatials to the TM’s. If I read you correctly you seemed to be a bit underwhelmed and were ready to go "back to the drawing board."So I am assuming your last two posts re...
