Tekton Open Baffle Speakers

They aren't really $3K.  If you go to Tekton's Facebook page you will see that the $3K is like a preorder deposit.  They will still charge you $7K.  The exact post by Tekton was "$7K per pair. $3K deposit gets you in the queue."  

That might seem reasonable compared to Pure Audio Project but it is absurdly expensive compared to the Tekton Moabs and it is hard to imagine them being better than the Moabs but only time will tell.  I can tell you that I have never heard an open baffle speaker that out performed the Moabs.

@pinwa Absolutely agree about the Moab (or other full size speakers) being a better buy.  But smaller speakers appeal strongly to those whose spouse won't let them have bigger speakers.   Tekton is all about the sound rather than the room decor.  

Another challenge these speakers may have is the flat baffle appeals more to the room decor crowd and not having polished hardwood, many will still find them unattractive, even though they are smaller.

@jaymark ,

Still running the Elector?

Buy Maggies and be done with it.

I’m with the OP - 3k seems very relatively inexpensive to try compared to the competition and resale should cover costs but no guarantee.  Tekton’s reputation for high value is reassuring.  This seems low risk with a large potential upside
