Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time"
Just got in house for review for hometheaterreview.com Tekton Design’s new, The Perfect SET, which is close to 100dB efficient and never dips below 8 ohms, which Eric built to be used with SET "flea watt" amplifiers. It is a front ported design using a 12 inch woofer and his patented array of small transducers that function as a midrange driver with a single tweeter in the middle. I set them up in a system with a great 2A3 SET amplifier and found them so superlative I did not stop listening for over five hours! Taking about "goosebump time" the music was so beautiful that
I lost track of time.
These speakers have all the virtues of the other Tekton speakers, speed, utter transparency/micro-details, great soundstaging, and that special "aliveness" that I experience when I listen to my Ulf’s. What really amazed me was what the Perfect SET was delivering on the bottom end frequencies, subterrainian/taut powerful bass, that was shaking the room, all coming from at most 2.5 to 3 watts.
If you love SET amplifiers this speaker is a match made in heaven, and remember this pair just arrived and is not totally burnt in yet.

@sthlm78 You are welcome. The Ulfberth BEs were in a ’smaller’ room. Their performance in this room surprised me and confirmed that they would work in my room (which is larger) and which measures 19 feet (front wall) X 26 feet X 9 feet. Both Ulfberth, standard versions, I heard on separate occasions and in different systems were in larger spaces than the room the Ulfberth BEs were in. I estimate the room the Ulfberth BEs were in to be approximately 16 feet (front wall) X ~ 24 feet (stairway to basement)) X 8 feet high. Perhaps @audioezra @aolprodj @audioarchon @teajay can confirm (?) |

Thought those of you who have/like LTA amps might want to see the
faceplate created by Lou Hinckley of Daedalus Audio for the LTA Ultralinear ZOTL amp. - Beautiful craftsmanship as are Lou's speakers https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=163292.0 |
