Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers


We have had many discussions/arguments over tekton speakers in the past, mainly involving a couple posters who thought their $4000 tektons sounded better than the highest price Wilson’s and other high budget speakers.

In the latest Stereophile magazine, they did a review of the $30,000 tekton’s. In this Steteophile issue, they rate these $30,000 tekton’s as class B. When you look at the other speakers that are in the class B section, you will notice most of these speakers range in price from $5000-$8000. So it looks like you have to spend $30,000 on a pair of tekton’s to equal a pair of $5000 Klipsch Forte IV’s sound quality. 
If I compare these $30,000 class B tekton’s, to some of the class A speakers, there are some class A speakers for 1/2 the price (Dutch & Dutch 8C, Goldenear triton reference), or other class A speakers that are cheaper (Magico A5, Kef blade 2).

Ha, ha ha ha, I guess with tekton as the premier, in all contemporary, "S.O.T.A." speaker design being truly but a foregone conclusion. Assuredly this is now the only real direction left for us, is it not? For all now must to turn our focus, our gaze into the light of aleksander!

     For he has shown us the path! To which all future speaker design must surely go towards, eh?

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! All I really know about the guy is that he is really, Really, good for a few laughs! Also, that he is truly a legend! "A legend in his own mind"!

It's still so funny every-time. Even after several years of him! You guys just wind him up, and then you just let him go!

Ha, ha, ha, and then he and his "Big, giant head" has to tough it out for the rest of the day! Like - "Getting through doors" and stuff. Just how the hell does he do it?

Can you even imagine someone having a head that damned big?!

Ha, ha, ha, You guys heard him earlier! He invented his, "disruptive speaker technology"! Man-o-man, It hurts laughing this hard! For this long!

He's on point today!

I gotta roll....Ha, ha, ha....
