PranaFidelity speakers, what say you?

Pts, I'm afraid the Pranas are out of my reach, price-wise. They do have that "in the room" presentation. From what I remember from a few years ago when I first heard them I was told that the electronics made by Prada are responsible for a lot of what I heard but I'm pretty sure that any good set of amps and pre will do.

Also, I didn't notice that Tekton was there as well and am kicking myself right now. I read on another thread on another site that Tekton stated they couldn't make it to the show and yet....
I should have kept up because I really wanted to hear them.

And, here's my "not intending to highjack the thread" mention that I'm seriously leaning towards the Elac Adnate monitor speakers. Monitors work best in my space and these really spoke to me.

All the best,

If you're in the LA area, you're welcome to drop by and listen to the Lores to get a taste of the Tekton sound.

Pts, thanks for the invite but I have my heart and ears set on monitors. (That, and I can't part with my Timbernation maple stands that I had made)

I took a look at the Tekton monitors as well as his whole line and he uses different drivers from speaker to speaker save for some that are voiced along the same lines. That pointed tweeter that he uses in his group array looks interesting. There was a speaker at the LAX audio show that used one and it was incredibly airy, open and extended without any etch.
When I asked the maker about it he said it's an older design but when done well, it's right up there with the best.

All the best,

Sounded great at the LA Audio Show this past weekend. Seemed like a good value.

Prana has a nice floor stander too, as you saw. If you liked his stand mounts....you'll love the floor standers. I heard these at a show prior to this one. Extension is very good for their size. The floor standers extend more and have slightly more output capacity. Steven builds nice stuff, and you will have something very unique and nice. Good luck in your quest. Just to be bad....I will suggest also the ELAC Adante, and the Vandersteen 1Ci. Both do damage in the under 10k price point IMHO. Similar $$ will also get you into Fritz Grove/Carbon 7 Speakers. I have Groves and they are awesome too. Quite a bit less, (about 2 - 3 K) and worth every dime. KEF R series are very good too.
