Zu Omen or Tekton Lore

Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think the reason Eric sent Glen Beck a pair of speakers was due to fact he was a fan. Glen Beck actually referred to Eric as "some guy" and did not associate the gift with political affiliation. I am not a fan of Glen Beck; my observation is there are others that are not fans as well. Those people, myself included, are suspect of anything Glen Beck might say, therefore they may also be a little suspicious about the his complementary review of the Tektons and possibly refrain from buying them. If Eric is guilty of anything it may be he did not put enough forethought in sending the Tektons to Glen Beck because of a possible negative political connection.

I applaud anyone who takes a stand, but I don’t believe Eric was making a political statement when he sent the Tektons to Glen Beck. I have a pair of Tekton Lores, if you choose not to buy a pair of Tektons based upon an improbable political connection it will be your loss.

Actually, the Glen Beck endorsement endears me more to Tekton products...to each his own.

I still very much like mine.

Still want to play with the crossover too, but I'm a pretty big nerd when it comes to this stuff. I also put in a Duelund resistor, and cotton insulated wire. I'd really like to try Duelund caps, but I think they're too much for me now, I'll probably put them in my pendragons when I get them ;)

If you can afford it I really do think Erics recommendation of SIO would be the way to go, he does know what he's doing. A SIO cap in my preamp seemed to bring out more depth, soundstage and dynamics that the lores had to offer if that has any correlation. They're also very resolving in the highs and smooth in the "live" area.

What's SIO?

Didn't mean to get political and stir up bad feelings. It was really more of a visceral reaction. I have nothing against people supporting the Republican party. I just don't like Glenn Beck. Lots of people don't. He was fired from his show on Fox News. Even Walmart pulled advertising in the end, along with about 50 other companies. So you don't have to be a liberal not to like the guy. The audio was posted by "Clark Pace" who I assume represents Tekton. There are 8 other Tekton videos on the same site so I have to think this is something Mr. Alexander wants us to know about. I respect him for his ability to create a great product-I only question his choice of recipients of free speakers. Jealous, too!
Actually, if he wants to use a Republican spokesman, he should send some speakers to Jon Huntsman. Huntsman is a much more appealing guy, is also from Utah and was a professional musician so might have something interesting to say about recorded music. Just a thought...
