Tekton versus Klipsch


Hi, 

I am exploring tube amp friendly speakers.

I have listened to Cornwall 4's and Goldenear 2's.

Can anyone share how the sound of the Tektons, say Double Impacts, would compare to the other two brands?

Thanks for listening,

Fritz Carrera B's performed splendidly with a Modwright 300B HEADPHONE AMP.  That should tell you all you need to know w.r.t. their driveability with the kinds of amps you're looking at.  They also sounded great.
Hi,

I had a pair of GoldenEar 2+s. I didn’t particularly like the tone of the midrange and the powered bass was a bit distracting and not totally integrated into the sound. I would never go with a speaker that has a built in powered woofer again. I sold them and bought a pair of Tekton Electron SEs that are similar to the DIs but a bit shorter.

All in all, I do like the Electrons - very balanced sound, and as many have commented, any change you make upstream will be clearly heard. Also, the build quality and finish is outstanding (I purchased the standard finish and it looks great). I'm still looking for the perfect amp to drive them with that fits my budget - presently have a Willsenton R8 with EL34s... not bad, but not what I'm looking for. Think I'll try an Elkit 300b amp kit next.

"Facten....You argue the fact there are a lot of Tekton speakers for sale?..but my statement "they are junk,..poorly designed jinky cabinets with lousy bracing,big,butt ugly,loaded with cheap off the shelf drivers...all they do is go loud!.".....you say nothing about,lmao...I think that speaks for it self!!"


Well , missioncoonery, unlike some folks I don’t speak positively or negatively about equipment that I have never heard. Since I have never heard nor seen firsthand any Tekton speakers I am not in a position to contradict nor support your commentary on them. However, just looking at the listings I could comments about your exaggeration how there are  "tons for sale" ; 6 do not make a ton.
