Tekton Double Impacts

A new video of the Ulf's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp41geKe4zg

Just to be clear on the statements I made about the DI's and my Sasha's a couple of months ago; the DI's, overall, did outperform my Sasha's. From the mid-bass up through their hi frequency performance, they were more enjoyable and more musically engaging than the Sasha's. The level of performance and achievement, especially in the all important lower mid-range to upper bass region of the DI's, is exemplary.  Eric Alexander and his team should be lauded for what they have accomplished.  To gain this level of performance is commendable for a speaker at any cost, but at $3,000???  It should have been interesting, sitting around the Tekton board-room table and hearing Eric discussing the lofty design goals he had for the DI's, then share with his confidantes that he could do it all for around $3,000 retail.  I'm sure somebody snickered and said "Yeah right".  All I can say is interested parties should get their speakers soon before Tekton figures out what they have on their hands and puts their speakers thru a well deserved pricing restructure.

Thank you! Such an important piece of prog! "Pictures at an Exhibition."

The think that strikes me about this video that even captured on a non-audiophile device (I'm assuming here) that the highs are extended, the kick drum is very clear, as is the snare; the bass guitar is very natural, and the dynamics are off the charts.

I love the grills on the Ulfs, too. I mean, these aren't the most attractive speakers in the world. The grills certainly help.

Now, I'm listening to Greg Lake's vocals cut through like ice, as if he was there in your listening room.

I'm very familiar with the piece, so I know what I'm listening for, even on whatever recording device you used.

I love it!

I'm not quite sure Eric has a "team" per se, and the "board room" might just be him and Karma sitting around a linoleum table having their morning coffee.

That is to say, from my understanding it's still a Mom 'n' Pop organization, but that means absolutely nothing toward Tekton's future. 

You're right; people should jump on board now before these go through the roof.

We see quality audio companies fail all of the time, for whatever reason. We also see some rise that have no business rising.

If Eric could just find the help he needs to get his product out while people are getting hooked on Tekton, then he'll stand a great chance to raise is prices...and the people will follow.
