Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions


I am the very happy owner of the first pair of New Tekton Design Encores and I thought I would create this thread to answer any questions anyone might have regarding the Encore speakers, room considerations, and associated equipment. If you’ve order your pair already, please chime in. I really want to hear what other people’s experience are with these unbelievable speakers.

I drive my Encores with both an Art Audio Diavolo SET 300b Tube Amplifier with 8wpc and I switch in my 700w Nord One-Up SE Monoblocks for non-critical listening and some big pieces of music that benefit from the extra power.

@jakefalcons My Encores are finished in the color Spanish Tile with a high gloss finish.
@d2girls The Encores weigh a beastly 175lbs each and are very well braced internally. 
Much attention is paid to a speaker's driver quality and crossover and rightly so. I contend that one of the reasons for the Encores superior sound quality is the internal bracing and improved cabinet construction.

These speakers sure are making a splash. It's really intriguing. 

If only the Tekton designs weren't so huge and ugly, I'd be all over wanting to try them out!

Ah well...pity us poor aesthetes...
