Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to?

Truth is the crossover parts found in many Tekton speakers are the same quality level as most speakers costing up to $21,000 that I have modified. This is the truth of the matter. A sea of $10,000 - $25,000 speakers with $10 caps and $ .50 cent sand cast resistors. Common. All these speaker can, and should, be upgraded to hear what they are capable of.

As as far as drivers, many speakers costing up to $30,000 use “ off the shelf drivers” that you and I can purchase today. No big deal here. This fact alone has nothing to do with quality.

Lastly, many like the sound of paper drivers over synthetic materials. Many ways to build an excellent mouse trap.

It’s all in the music imaging.  If you listen to electrostatic you get this large life size representation but you have to have a big room which becomes an extensionof the stage. Also the types of music that sound great on them are narrower. Bass ported speakers sound great but loose out on the big stage presentation and placement can be critical.  Magico are built with particular emphasis on their cabinet construction and the results are a fast imaging like electostats and without the ported bass constraints.  
I am sure the better Tekton offerings will give you as much enjoyment as a good pair of Magicos at a more expensive price point specially for pop, hip hop, rock and other similar genres.   Electrostats would not be as good. 
Put on some great Classic music and then the electrostats will blow them away and the Magicos will give them a good run for the money.  
IMO the more expensive speakers and the more expensive amps,preamps,etc all add into a more life like representation of the original recording if that’s the end result you are looking for. You also have to have the proper amplification, room size and treatments.
Final analysis after listening to a system costing say 10 to15 K with top notch Tektons and competent amps etc you would proclaim this is an awesome system and that it would be hard to beat.
After listening to 100K Magicos with another 150K in support system you would proclaim this is an awesome system , hard to beat, and you would add that it sounds a “little” more ‘live” and “real” than the other awesome system next door.
This is what the price of admission is in Hifi.  
It’s like cars. Compare a Subaru Wrx Sti to a Mustang Shelby to a Corvette to a Porsche to a Ferrari to a Lambo to a Bugatti to an F1 race car and to a sound barrier breaking experimental vehicle.
What are you trying to achieve? 
Disclaimer: All of this is In my opinion only. 
 

Granny, that's nonsense.  How many Wilson, Focal, B&W, Magico, etc., have you "modified"?  I"m sure the first thing an owner of $30,000 speakers does is look you up for modifications.  

And these expensive speakers sure don't have the cheap MDF in a super boring design with silly color options.   

Bill, fools rush in where angels fear to tread. : )

As always, grateful for your wisdom and knowledge.

@david ten.   LOL! 

@213runnin. I don’t care to argue on Tekton and that was not my point. Yes, I have indeed worked on speakers costing up to $22,000. Many. Yes they do use MDF, yes they do use $10 caps and $ .25 sand cast resistors. Highly reviewed ones winning all kinds of accolades. It is quite a revelation learning from actual experience and I suggest that for you sir. Go ahead and look inside some expensive speakers and learn. They still sound great, but can be improved.

Yes some use other materials and higher quality parts. You mentioned a couple.
