Has anyone heard the new Eric Alexander signature speakers the matrix LS?

But the high gloss paint options are only $2000!

You can buy a pair of Ohm F5 for several thousand less...even less with trade ins. Those are more compact, include powered subs and weigh more: 150 pounds each, but at least on castors for easy placement.

I think these are the ones our own Douglas Schroeder reviewed on Dagogo a few months back.

BTW I have a pair of older F5s as my mains and can highly recommend them, but no powered subs with those and retail price ~ 14 years ago was only $6000.

I like Tektons for what they are (have a pair, actually), but $18k does seem kind of expensive for a plain box. Eric really should work on the aesthetics if he's going to play in that market.

JM2W.

Tekton use to make just garbage. Now they make expensive garbage. Oh, IMHO.

 "There is no Tekton shill, it doesn't exist.  There are very excited owners that you should not take very seriously.  You should listen on your own and on your own only."......It does exist imo..your take is wrong and that's why the Tekton post get constantly taken down...MC admitted on this site( before it was all deleted) he moved product and generated profit  on this free forum.. my guess, he is on a very short leash with the powers to be hence his abrupt absence in posting  ...I also think that compensation can come in many ways ie Moabs signed by the owner of the company  in gratitude for keeping the brand in post after post after post...that's my take on it
