Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions


I am the very happy owner of the first pair of New Tekton Design Encores and I thought I would create this thread to answer any questions anyone might have regarding the Encore speakers, room considerations, and associated equipment. If you’ve order your pair already, please chime in. I really want to hear what other people’s experience are with these unbelievable speakers.

I drive my Encores with both an Art Audio Diavolo SET 300b Tube Amplifier with 8wpc and I switch in my 700w Nord One-Up SE Monoblocks for non-critical listening and some big pieces of music that benefit from the extra power.

It takes hard work to keep him from overshooting his goal, and ending up going backwards.....
@waltersalas   and @olesno   Congratulations to both of you on your Tekton Design Encores.

Looking forward to hearing how they work out for each of you, especially the specific differences between the DIs, the SEs and the Encores.
