Tekton custom grills

@kristofa

Wow this subject I am unfortunately familiar with. I went through exactly what Audiofreak went through over 3 years ago. I ordered my speakers with grills from Tekton and got no holes for the grilles. This was obviously in 2017. Eric had to make me new speakers not just because of the no grill holes, but for other reasons as well (bad paint job, mid bass drivers not mounted correctly, speakers poorly packed so binding posts were sticking out of the box loose and scratched up). Loss of profit for them and just added frustration altogether with this buying experience.

Then to get the grills just like you said kristofa. Calling them, emailing them is the only way to get them to ship. Took over 2 months. I wish they were upfront about not getting grills with the speakers. I can understand if they do not include grills because of the trial period, but it seems like that is not the case. Tekton keep kicking themselves in the face for no reason. Its almost like they like it. But Eric can make an excellent speakers that is for sure. So sad!

Call karma she will help you...she answers the phone...

Audiofreak mine don’t have holes too, I can put holes but no anchor plastic for the holes, I emailed them to send me , no answers yet, but will try to look a HomeDepot...That’s the biggest problem....I like the covers though.

Keep in mind your responding to a post that Audiofreak made over 3 years ago. So chances he might not see this?

One should not be making excuses for the no hole debacle. If you order them with holes, they need to send you new speakers if they don’t have them. You should not have to make a trip to Home Depot to resolve this at all.

@jayctoy  - Yep, it is Karma who I have been dealing with. She has been very good at responding. 

@aniwolfe I am am glad I got holes, at least. I didn’t realize you went through that. 

@kosst_amojan - very good point.

For those who have finally received their grilles...have you noticed any audible change with or without them? OBVIOUSLY they were voiced without grilles, so my hope is they will not be detrimental to that voicing.
