Zu Omen or Tekton Lore


Best floorstanders under $999 for low power SET amp?

Thanks

I haven't read a post anywhere from anyone who has heard both.
My guess would be that different amps and rooms will influence the sound more than the difference between Omen and Lore just by looking and reading about them. This type of conjecture will likely be the closest you'll get until someone compares both.
The biggest differance that I've been able to read about is that the Lore has cabinet dampening, 30hz bass responce, Phase control and a tweeter that is second to none.
I don't know if it sound will be better or not. On paper and price, it has an edge.

The Omen has the ZURG loading, 30hz bass response, and I assume it has phase control (the Maine driver is set out and tweeter is recessed) and I assume a good tweeter also.
The Omen has 34hz bass responce. I doubt if one could hear the difference.
And the price difference is the real edge.
I'm curious if the ZU's are $500 better sounding (which is personal taste of course) than the Lore's. At $1500, you are getting close to XQ KEF series (I know, a different type of speaker). My thought process works like this, are the omen's $1500 speakers, that were offered for $999 or are they $999 speakers they are able to sell for $1500. It doesn't matter if they sound good to you. But, since I cannot try them both locally (I know both have great return policy), it makes sense to try the Lore's first. I wish more people who have heard both would chime in
