Tekton Open Baffle Speakers

I see they have new open baffle speakers with 15 inch woofers that can be pre-ordered for 3000 bucks.  After the pre-order period they will be 7K.

Has anyone heard a prototype of this speaker?  At this price point it's tempting to order and sell if I don't like it.  I have 4 two channel systems and a vibrant stereo kit graveyard.

I’m with the OP - 3k seems very relatively inexpensive to try compared to the competition and resale should cover costs but no guarantee.  Tekton’s reputation for high value is reassuring.  This seems low risk with a large potential upside

@kennyc ,

Its a $3000 deposit, not $3000 price.

@pinwa nice pickup on my mistaken price quote. At 7k, my fascination for picking up a pair has fallen considerably.

@ thecarpathian I still have the fine sounding Elector as a backup preamp but all 4 of my two channel active preamps are tubed.

@thecarpathian

looking at the Tekton website, seems like a promo vs deposit- confusing. I called Tekton who just verified that it is only a “deposit/down payment” for the 7k total.
