Audiofreak, I can bottom-line this thread for you...
Along with some helpful suggestions from people who don't have any financial/emotional attachment to Tekton, you're being minimized by two kinds of people here.
The first is the person who actually own Tektons and they're dealing with some latent fear that if the small, independent maker of their speakers were to receive enough negative "press" the company may go out of business and they'd lose access to parts, service, etc. They couldn't care less about your problem, except for hoping that your problem becomes muted so it doesn't indirectly someday become their problem.
The second is the person who has formed an emotional bond with the company, and your issue is creating tremendous cognitive dissonance that they can't compartmentalize. It's like showing up on a Hostess Apple Pie Lovers message board and announcing that Hostess Apple Pies gave you food poisoning - emotional distress galore.
In both cases, it's not their $2500 in play, and it ain't their molehill so to speak. They just want you to go away. And there's a good chance this thread will be deleted, in which case your molehill will have never existed at all.
Going forward, consider this whole situation a valuable lesson learned - about speakers and people. Like Jaxwired posted, should you ever again consider buying boutique, you now know the risks involved, but if you want the drivers to match you may want to consider KEF or Dynaudio (or B&W, Proac, Harbeth, etc)
Best of luck to you.
