Tekton ultimate crossover upgrade

"The Ultimate crossover consists of Mundorf Supreme Silver/Gold oil poly capacitors, copper foil wound inductors and high end Mundorf resistors."

Has anyone heard a pair of Tekton speakers with the ultimate crossover upgrade? Is it worth the $1800? Anyone have any thoughts on it? Thanks.

You could hardly build them for the cost. Plus the DIs I had did things better than a lot of more expensive speakers. Great tone, super detail, fast, etc. only issue was at super loud volumes the cabinets talked a bit. Thinking back I should not have been so critical of that since I was pushing them into 100db range and I don’t listen more than 90db at the absolute most. I think Eric is a great designer for the man’s man. Or chick whatever…… lol.

You will notice a difference, but to my ears they add too much "air" and I don't know if I'd like it for long. I put air in quotes because it's not real. I mean, it sounds like a coloration as opposed to natural. In terms of the Tekdon Impact Monitors, I would rework the crossover before I upgraded anything.
