ZU makes some very attractive speakers in fun colors I can relate to.
Steve Guttenburg recently harpooned a new ZU model. Odd
that he did so as normally does no negative reviews. Did
he feel he needed to say what he did or did he not realize how
his review came across? I think some of both.
The Tekton look is for a younger market. I get that.
Audiophiles owe a debt of gratitude to Tekton for capturing the
imagination of younger folks who may be new to audio.
I have heard Moabs in two home systems.
Ditto with Double Impact and Lore.
The first Tekton I heard that piqued my interest is that Monitor I mentioned.
Decware promotes about 10 models on their site.
He has knocked off some of the truly proven designs over time.
Although I haven't heard Steve's stuff I am a believer.
I doubt many other makers can claim the 700+ unit backlog
that Decware currently has.
As the story goes if you have a drinking fountain in an obscure
location, people would flock to it if flowed beer.
People may want to get in line there before Harmon gobbles
them up and the genius & pricing changes.
