Owner looking to make them sound better.

It is pretty much anything "manufacturer direct" that seems to get trashed here, a trend i see. It could be the middle men who don't get a piece of the 'manufacturer direct' pie perhaps.

Wilson $27900 - minimum Middle man/Dealer's cut, 50% ($13950) = $13950

That's a big chunk of the pie to miss out on.

 

Tekton speakers are trashed by some here and I guess they would prefer to spend $27,900 on a Wilson that does not measure as well as it should. The bottom line- some fellow goners here like to hear themselves talk when everything they say is utter nonsense. They would have us think THEY are the speaker designers... not the makers of Wilson, Tekton or GR Research.

Guys like this place actual listening, in a proper musical system, DEAD LAST. It's all about getting their test rig to show a flat FR, plus a BOM with little room for profit. So boring - like most speakers designed this way. 

We live in a clickbait era, so these videos get him a large audience plus a ready market to buy his stuff. Good for him.

You might want to be aware of facts before jumping on the keyboard to spread nonsense.  Clearly you have no idea what you are talking about.  Danny does more critical listening in a proper musical system and proper room than the rest of us individually in our lifetimes.

Fixing speakers sent to him is a small part of the overall business.  More importantly, he revealed the emperor (mass market speaker brands) has no clothes.

Yup. There are quite a few of these clickbait audio "experts." A handful have carved out a little niche for themselves.
