Wilson to Tekton to ????


Ok, here we go again.  I started 2 threads a few years ago.  "What did I do?" was the title of the first one. Look it up if interested.

This is what I did. I sold my used Wilson Sophia Series II for $1000 more than I paid for them. Then I spent most of that money on Tekton Moab speakers.   The system was in a really large room and the Moabs did not look out of place and the fact the actual speakers were higher from the floor gave me a sense of "Being There".  I loved them.

Now I moved to a smaller house, room.  These Moabs now look like I has 2 standing closets in the corners of my room. Black in color does not help.  But the sound is still very nice and I plan on buying the Townsend bases for them.

But I know in my heart that the Wilson speakers would be perfect in this room.

Here is what I have learned. Never Sell Anything.

Please don't speak of Wilson and Tekton in the same breath

No doubt that some feel this way. However the OP “actually “ heard and owned both and made his decision accordingly. This has more credence than merely dismissing something due to bias and preconceived notions. He heard what he heard. Subjective by default.

I've heard the Tekton's and they were ok, very dynamic but didn't do micro dynamics well. Hated the looks, showed my wife who told me if they ever came into our home she would be sure to use one as my coffin!

Uh oh. So selling my second system Spendor SP2/2 for Tekton Perfect SET isn't a good idea?

I bit of a different road for me. In the 70's I sold a bunch of Yamaha for a high end store. Always loved the receivers but never brought one home. Couldn't stand it recently when I say a mint unit on Reverb for a great price. Snapped that bad boy up and lifted years of regret just like that. I do wish I still had my SP-6.  I have started looking again. Fun stuff.
