Seeking audition of Tekton Moab, Encore, or Ulfberht speakers in DFW Metroplex area

I was able to get a listen to Tektons by posting this way, too, but in the Denver area. It totally answered what I needed to know. Good luck to you!

@arafiq For my tastes -- and for the tastes of a couple of other audio folks in Denver -- the Tektons were not keepers. Their sound was big, bright, forward and the speakers were over-larger and imposing for the spaces in which they were used. They were paired in once case with Atmasphere Class D monoblocks and and in another with tube amps. They were bested in one case by Dutch and Dutch 8c and in another case by Devore 0/96 speakers. My own speakers are Ascend Acoustics towers.

@arafiq Most welcome. I have quicksilvers also, and the person who had them had very very nice tube amps, not too powerful. Still -- too in your face. I'd rather try Zu or Omega at this pricepoint. Or go higher, to Fyne, Tannoy, Devore, etc.

@carlsbad2 I never heard them with SET amps, which I think would be a very important test. That said, I've heard other very sensitive speakers with SET amps, and some of them have very very nice parts in them (including higher quality drivers). The Tekton engineers may be onto something special with their design, but the folks I've talked to say the they'd be better with better parts. But that's not a debate I am really qualified to adjudicate. Let's just say that if I had the money, I'd probably go for higher end, higher sensitivity speakers than Tekton.
