Why People Like Tekton

I agree with bigkidz and my D2s are superbly detailed but totally natural and musical, listenable to for hours with a tweeter that will stun you with detail and never hurt your ears with 'too much detail'. Ha.

If it's too much detail, and glaring and bright, and not-so-listenable, I don't think you're hearing detail, perhaps distortion, or diamond tweeters (ouch).

Somehow that combo of detail and musicality, not murky and musicality seems to cost more.

I have certainly been turned off by many hyper detailed systems… ear bleeding, no musicality. 

I don’t know if there is some kind of concerted effort to push this brand on this site, but if that is the case, the shills are doing the brand a disservice.  I have heard two models—the Double Impact and the MOAB—and both sounded quite good to me, particularly given the price.  The sound is more akin to old, high efficiency designs than the thinner, more tipped up in frequency response designs that are common these days.  Both were quite lively sounding.  To compare with modern extremes, they are closer to Audio Note than to Magico.  While they may not be everyone’s favorite, I find it hard to believe anyone who heard it would actually hate the sound—it has no extreme flaws or weaknesses and it is tonally reasonably balanced.

I also like that these are reasonably efficient speakers that can work with my favorite kind of amps, which are, low-powered tube amps.

I own a pair of Tektons. Enzo XL's

What they're good at, well, they do well......

I would say their sound is anything but analytical. 

That being said, this whole $3K vs $30k "giant killer" thing is straight up bullshit.

Mine are loud, forward, not relaxed in their presentation and absolutely perfect if I want to play AC/DC or Ozzy loudly after a six pack.

Unfortunately, I don't really listen like that anymore.

I've outgrown them and moved on to a decent pair of OB speakers. 

I don't care how good Tektons sound, I'm just not there anymore in my listening journey. They do something really well that I've kind of lost interest in. I could see where they would be perfect for someone, I'm just not that guy anymore.

As a Tekton owner, thought I'd chime in and give M2CW.

No need to hate, Tekton markets their hype. I would too, that's how you make money......

No need to over-hype, either.

You like what you like. If they work for you, great.

If you hear something else you like, well......you pays your money, and you takes your choice. ;)
