Experience using a subwoofer with Tekton speakers?


Hi all,

Just recently received a pair of Tekton Electron SEs. I'm still getting to know these speakers but so far very pleased with the sound. My only wish - and maybe a bit of break in will help - is for a bit more bass.

My question to the Audiogon community: has anyone had experience using a subwoofer with Tekton speakers, ideally Electrons (with 8" drivers), and if so, what would you recommend for a sub? Thinking about a REL t/9.

Also - I'm using a low-powered SET amp (7.6 watts) to power the Tektons. That may be a big part of the issue.

Thanks!
Josh

I’ve had both the Double Impacts ( 2-10”) and the Moabs (2-12”) woofers. I found them both to be light on bass. I used mcintosh 501 monos to drive them. Tekton makes a 4-10 sub. 2 of these solved all my problems. I switched out the Tekton subs for 2 SVS 14” units. The Tekton’s ran circles around the SVS. hope this helps. Tekton is the way to go.
