Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions

I am the very happy owner of the first pair of New Tekton Design Encores and I thought I would create this thread to answer any questions anyone might have regarding the Encore speakers, room considerations, and associated equipment. If you’ve order your pair already, please chime in. I really want to hear what other people’s experience are with these unbelievable speakers.

I drive my Encores with both an Art Audio Diavolo SET 300b Tube Amplifier with 8wpc and I switch in my 700w Nord One-Up SE Monoblocks for non-critical listening and some big pieces of music that benefit from the extra power.

Trying to digest all these posts is difficult at best. So much information.Thanks though.

My issue is trying to decide on which to Order??? As a Rock and Roll person only. Pink Floyd, Rush, YES, AC/DC etc. MOAB with BE upgrade or Encore. Eric has stated that he would recommend MOAB with BE. Very Large Room, Wont go all into my system (digital Red book CD's and Qobuz) power,  Pass x250.8 most likely using class A power even at 90 db. Eric stated that the Encores are tilted towards classical, orchestral, etc where the MOAB's are more R&R oriented. He mentioned that he is working on a R&R Encore setup with different Woofers, that he would add. I will explore that conversation with him on Monday, tomorrow.   If anyone can help me with this decision, or at least make me smarter, more informed, please let me know. Very much appreciated.
