tekton design 6.5t


was looking for a good small monitor to match up with my april music aura note in the $5-700 range. almost got ascend acoustics sierra-1, considered monitor audio rx silver series and settled on ordering tekton design 6.5t. eric is well-respected for his open-baffle designs, but i didn't want to go that direction. there is virtually nothing out there info-wise on the 6.5t's. i bought them based on testimonials from users of his OB designs. i'm not expecting aci sapphire or harbeth type performance out of these monitors, but i would like to know if anyone has heard them and what his (her) impressions were?

Tekton makes excellent speakers that not only sound great, but are very well built and offer incredible value. I actually don't know how they offer so much for such low prices.
Tektons answer to the Zu Omen looks fantastic......great intro price too $850ish
I got a pair of Tekton Katz Meow (previous model to what you'll see on the website) about a month ago and like them a lot. I was especially surprised at the bass output. Eric does excellent work and seems to be a good guy.
The 6.5t is a completely different design so I can't comment on them though.
I have a pair of the 6.5t in makore finish and they look and sound great. I would compare them between Linn Tukans / Katans and Totem monitors. I have NAD preamp with Audio Refinement multichannel amp are driving them in a biamp config with Linn K400 wire.
