Zu Omen or Tekton Lore


Best floorstanders under $999 for low power SET amp?

Thanks

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

There are a few additional things to consider:
1. Zu includes free shipping both ways with a 60 day return policy.
2. Resell value.
3. If I were looking at the $1500 price range, I would get a B stock pair of Superfly's (Zu just sold one this week for $1800). The Superfly HO Driver is better, it also comes with Mundorf caps, and has better internal (silver) wire.
On the other hand, I have not heard the Lores, but would love to and I hope to soon. If I were single I would just order a pair but my LR is full! The price to performance of the Lore is very high right now and I bet you would be very happy with either:)
I agree with Morganc that you'd probably be happy with either.
I have and love my Omens that I bought for $999. If I were looking today I would opt for the Lores but that's just me.

btw I don't believe there is an answer to the "are they $999 speakers selling for $1500 or ate they $1500 speakers that originally sold for $999.
I have been following this thread and yesterday I ordered a pair of Lore speakers. After Zmanastronomy said they were not a pretty speaker, I decided to spring for the gloss finish, in black. Eric said it will take two weeks for the gloss finish to be ready, and now I am thinking of changing to gloss white since it may go well with my audio room. Have any of you seen the gloss finishes, and what do you think of them. I am a little concerned about resale value, especially for white. Also, I asked Eric about speaker cable and he said get Kimber 4TC. Eric used to work at Kimber. 4TC cost a fraction of my current speaker cable. Thanks for any comments.
