Description

My Main System (haha, my only system).  Some recent big upgrades have brought it to a whole new level!  A Backert Labs Rhumba 1.3 replaced a Schiit Freya (OG), a Coda No. 8 replaced a First Watt F7, and Analysis Plus Interconnects replaced some quality but generic (Ghent Audio) cables.  Enjoying it very much, but like a good audiofool - always looking towards the next upgrade :)

Beautiful system. And it looks like you really think things through. Have you considered subwoofers? In my experience, subwoofers can have more affect on the midrange than the lower frequencies and help make the watts available really shine through. As always, I wonder what music you enjoy the most on those Tektons? Thanks for posting.
