REVEL performa3 f208 or TEKTON Moab

I have seen and heard the Tektons for years at RMAF as well as Revel and am surprised (others may not be) they are mentioned together at all. They seem so different sounding to me.

I believe the Revel to be a far superior speaker in engineering and more importantly in fine sound quality. When I see 'unique' engineering and logic I wonder why I don't see it elsewhere. I remember thinking the Tektons looked a bit garage-built in a woodshop and the sound never did it for me. Different strokes...
   
Please, for your sanity, pick the Revels and enjoy for a long time! I hope all the Tekton owners love and enjoy their speakers as well; that's why we got our stuff anyway.

Only smaller gauge inductors appear to be targeted at the upper frequency where there already appears to be resistors for level matching so the largest gauge really does not matter. The low frequency inductors are not air core for the intentional reason to reduce DC resistance.

the steep slopes and poor crossover components kill the F208. The moab uses 6 db slopes which is phase coherent and features an upgrade for crossover components.  

This is a really old article, and still relevant and covers this false notion about the perfection of 6db crossovers...

David Wilson, Richard Vandersteen and John Dunlavy wouldn't agree with that article. Nelson Pass designs nice amps, but not loudspeakers.
