| sibilance in system Not sure if this might be indirectly helpful but I own a pair of the Omega Super 7 mk2 noted above and they have no sibilance issues driven by a 6L6 SE amp. Wonder if a call to Louis might be helpful on how the Omega Supre 6 Alnicos compare in re... | |

| Tekton Double Impacts @tjraubacher The DI's perform very well at lower volumes. A number of owners used SET amps and were very happy. I prefer higher powered SS but that is personal preference. The volume level will not impact detail, imaging or sound stage. Wha... | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers I think audioaudition needs to read more carefully before he speaks. I said value is relative i.e, it’s different for EVERYBODY. I have no problem with people who value 250K speakers. Please forgive my post. I know I am not worthy of members like ... | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers That's right--never heard a good speaker. My reference is live music--not so sure I need to a good audio show and "work my way up to $250-500k speakers". Love it when terms like "blow away" are used. Totally worthless and unqualified. Value is... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @2psyop Tekton haters, as a last resort, point out how ugly they are. I love the fact I didn't blow thousands on a wood veneer (and I am a woodworker that loves the fine woodworking). I listen in a darkened room. Would never see see that rain... | |
| How often, and how, do you clean your stylus? Before every listening session of 1-3 LP's. | |
| Record player sounds out of tune and "wavy" The most likely cause is an old stretched belt. Cheap fix--if you can fined a replacement of the correct size. | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers @mbmi Exactly. I just posted the same thought in another thread (although went with $3-10k). The Double Impacts are the speaker that put Tekton on the map. I have said this before--the value on the end product is HUGE and maybe unsurpassed in... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Still have my DI’s and love them more than ever. No desire to "upgrade". I would say the true value point of Tekton is between $3-10k. Voiced beautifully. Seamless integration of so many drivers. Great imaging. Dynamic. Easy to drive. Love the fa... | |
| supra sword excalibur speaker cable As the OP stated, he is looking at a used pair of cables, so the figures you noted are a bit misleading. I have used Supra cables for years and think they are neutral high value cables. I have no idea how the Swords compare. In the end, you rea... | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player I am quite sure you could pick up a replacement traverse assembly (transport) via Encompass (if that is the problem). You just need to locate a competent technician to help out. Please let us know how this turns out and don't give up on that gre... | |
| how to fix a CD player Once had an old Rotel CD player that would quit tracking. It had a Phillips swing arm transport with a pivot bearing that went dry. One drop of transmission fluid fixed it. Make sure the grease you pick is not too heavy and plastic compatible. | |
| Omega Speakers Turnaround Time @toudou If you are thinking of purchasing a pair I can tell you that Louis is is fully trustworthy but he is slow. Expect a wait. My pair took a couple of months longer than quoted--but they were worth the wait. He did a beautiful job on a cu... | |
| The receiver was my intro to HiFi! What say you? The journey for me began with a modest but blue is beautiful Pioneer SX-636 driving a pair of Electrovoice Interface B's. Could have done worse as a 17 year old kid. |
