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).

I’ll just say size does matter when it comes to speakers and leave it at that. 

Eric,

 

I'm sure you know this but miijostyn is well known for his strong opinions on products of which he knows little about and/or hasn’t listened to in decades.  Bizarre that someone would spend time engaged as he does but some things cannot be explained.  That said, good for you to protect your brand/product and let open minded readers hear your side.  Not that the two sides are remotely of equal qualification.
