Dont fight it. Reward yourself with gear that will put a smile on your face and that will amaze friends and family.

No, we don’t know.

I comfort myself with having spent a lot of money in coming to this conclusion. Or non-conclusion, often referred to a confusion.
Been pursuing audiophile sound since the 70’s. I have about 7 sets of speakers. Currently loving some Tekton Electrons. BUT - a pair of bottom-end Mission speakers and a noname subwoofer that I tried unsuccessfully to give away, and that sat outside for a couple years just happened to be handy while I was cleaning out the garage, so I hooked them up to my Wilsenton R8 tube amp so I could motivate myself with some music and wholly EFFFF…sounds very good. A buddy came over and was impressed. We had a few beers and tried to figure this out. The answer came out to my garage’s previously unrealized excellent accoustics and the fact that we were in a good mood.
So, good sir, carry on. Listen up, listen often and just enjoy the ride your ears take you on. And don’t forget to feel good about all the dough you’ve lavished on all that stuff.

Teknion is controversial?
Thats news to me. I spoke to the owner of the company when I bought my Electron SE’s two years ago. Everything about the transaction was excellent and I could not be happier about the results.

Nice looking setup. What streamer device?

More proof, as if its needed that all truly cool people have dogs. My Aussie-Dude’s routine is to stretch out and nap behind my speakers along the back wall. My German Shepherd however, doesn’t like most of my music and prefers to park himself on the other side of my studio’s door.
