Tekton tweeter design

Hi erik, I have PM'd you with a question.

Hey Jetter,

For technical questions like that, DIYAudio is a better place than Audiogon. :)

erik,

You say you are "...neither a fan boy nor a detractor of Tekton," yet you are the originator of this thread and the most frequent responder. I have to ask you, what is your affiliation with Tekton?

Please don’t tell me that you are just an enthusiastic audiophile trying to spread the gospel of Tekton because they give you goosebumps.

tonykay, your way off base on your insinuation towards erik, to the point it makes one wonder what your beef is. erik doesn’t own Tekton and is just describing the different technology used in the tweeter array of the speaker.

Your adding the drama.

Hey Tonykay :

You say you are "...neither a fan boy nor a detractor of Tekton," yet you are the originator of this thread and the most frequent responder.

I have no financial interest in Tekton or any other. I make my own speakers, and like to talk technology.  If you'd like to build my speakers, the design is free and here:

I haven't actually heard Tektons! :) 



My point to this thread was there were some Tekton threads about the tweeter array which weren't rooted in very good speaker/acoustics theory, so I thought I'd point A'goners to some really good analysis by someone I admire over at the DIYaudio thread.  My hope is for armchair speaker critics to see how Patrick deconstructs them and compares them to other types of arrays.


As I've said before, there's good and bad points of the Tekton designs, but the array is innovative and worth discussing more accurately.

Best,
E
