Zu vs. Tekton? -- your comparisons on price, build, sound


My brother in law just bought a pair of Zu Soul Supreme speakers to go with his Rogue RP7/First Watt J2 combo. 

He's clearly chasing that lower watt/higher sensitivity magic.  

I've asked him about his interest in Devore, AudioNote and some other pricier, high sensitivity speakers, and they're just not coming up used at a price he wants to buy. 

So, he's going with Zu.

Zu and Tekton are in the same price region. How do their similarly priced models compare?

If you have researched Zu and Tekton and compared similar priced models:

What differences in your system did you notice in their sound?

How would you compare their build quality — cabinets, drivers, etc.?

Again, you put words into my mouth I never said, you have serious reading problems or something else. I give up.

 (if it's the reading problem: one last time - people have different lives, some have money for expensive Hummel figurines, some for College, some for groceries. Different lives, different priorities is what I said)

I think a lot of people who are non-believers in speaker wire are those either have difficulty writing the check or are jealous about those who can.  As a result they put down others who can.

 

That is, sorry to say, a facile and self serving bit of cheap pop psychology.  And therefore not surprisingly: wrong.

It's like saying "Those people who don't believe in horoscopes must simply be jealous of those who can pay for having their horoscopes read professionally."

No.  They just think it doesn't do what it claims and hence it would be a waste of their money.

I mean, I could reply with:  "I think people spending money on expensive audiophile cables are just doing so as a status symbol among other audiophiles.  It's just an ego thing."

Does that sound right to you?  Or is it just cheap pop psychology from someone not even trying to understand why you believe what you believe?
