Tekton vs Decware

I have Hornshoppe Horns placed a few feet from the side walls and about a foot from the front wall and they sound great so corner placement may be optimal, but not essential.

I've had the Hornshoppe Horns and they do not need to be placed in the corner to get the best sound. They were great but I upgraded to the MG944s to get more bass and I never was satisfied. Something was lost in the trade: air and coherence, which are some of the dominant traits of single drivers when done well.

I've since graduated to Tonian Labs TL0-D1s which expand on the single driver theme with a super tweeter and are better executed (I get very convincing bass, tone and texture) The Tektons physically resemble the Tonians in that regard and from what I've read adequately address the lower mids and bass.

In all honesty, I think the Hornshoppe Horns or the Decware MG944s will be a step sideways and may not be your cup of tea if you really like the sound of the Tektons.

No,
Thanks for the response -- I'd actually forgotten I even started this thread. I think you misunderstood how I felt about the Tekton sound -- they were a bit too "in your face" for my taste. I ended up w/ the MG944s, which I much prefer -- a much more refined sound.

Batch,
Glad you like the MG944s. As always, it's always how it sounds in your system that counts.

All the best,

Never heard the Decware, but by default I'd go with them. TO MY EARS, I don't get Tekton or Zu Audio. Way to bright, way in your face. No warmth. No fullness of sound, for lack of a better water, their un-refined speaker.
