What did you do to your stereo rig today?

Forgot to post this but I had an "itch" for a different sound so I swapped out the LRSs for the LSi9s. Then I realized two things: 1, I had been jamming to the LRSs for two years before this "itch" came along so kudos the them! & 2, I almost forgot what it was like having a bunch more speaker cones moving air around the hifi was like! It's a more visceral experience for sure.

Now I thinking the next upgrade this cold season is going to be BIGGER (cone driver) speakers.

Go big or go home....wait, you are home, aren't you????

Big cones, or big horns! Something like this comes to mind...

Those Tekton get pretty good reviews.

I've seen a few pop up near Atlanta but they are always sold in less than a day.

Very nice!!!

Yeah, something else comes to mind when I hear big cones......

I would research the brand in detail. Many report that mostly good reviews exist because the owner goes after reviewers with lawsuits if they make negative comments.

That incident with Erin's Audio Corner removed Tekton from my shopping list forever. Too many other options.

Interesting. I guess I hadn't read into Tekton deep enough. That certainly changes things.

I've heard a lot of speakers and listened to a pair of Tekton's once. No interest in hearing them again. YMMV, but recommend listening to them before buying.

I'm not likely to ever go after a pair. I saw a couple pairs local and was curious, but but he more I look into it, they probably aren't for me. Heck, I'm pretty happy with the 4 different sets I can listen to now.

Local fella picked up my Denon DP-2000 for a recap and a going over.
Hoping that takes care of my speed at
33-1/3, holds good @ 45.
Having the guy do them all (caps) while he’s in there.

Bought this one new in 79.
Installed an SME Series III Tonearm on this one.

Getting ready to sell some of my TT’s.
We just don’t spin anymore.

Did your speed problem get resolved? Doesn't the DP2000 have a strobe on the inner platter that helps it maintain the correct speed? Did you check this for damage?

Still at his repair shop.

The strobe just shows the speed and there’s no speed adjustment on the 2000.

It holds rock steady at 45 but she runs a tad slow at 33-1/3.
Pretty sure it’s the caps in the speed circuit but he hasn’t gotten back to me yet.

While he’s in there, having him do all caps as they’re all original.

Last time it was in rotation both speeds were dead on.
It’s amazing what shows up after not using it for 10 years.

Actually, there are two adjustment pots under the motor cover...at least according to this discussion from AK:

Hope this helps.
