I don't have any experience with the Tektons, but I do own a pair of Vandy Treo CTs. Excellent speakers, especially if they are dialed in correctly in the sweet spot. Vandy speakers, if you ask me are perfect for music lover who just wants to relax and enjoy the "music"...it is about the music no? The only draw back with the Vandies in my opinion is that you really need to be dial in, seating in front of the speakers to really enjoy the correct time and phase. If the speakers are correctly placed and you're in the sweet spot, the Vandies in my opinion will compete with the best of them. If you're not in the sweet spot and you like to roam around the house the Vandies will not sound their best and perhaps the Tektons will perform better in that case. Reading the feedback on the Tektons and my own experience with Vandies, I'm sure both will sound great. Good Luck!
Tekton Double Impact vs. Vandersteen 2ce sig II
Good evening folks, just looking for opinions on the Tektons vs. the Vandersteens. They are both right around the same ballpark in price (3k) so should be a fair fight. I have been a Vandersteen fan for a long time. I have their old 2C and find it to be a very special speaker and is musical in a way that is hard to describe. Recently I heard the Treo CT and it was on a whole other level of clarity and musicality, but still with that signature Vandy sound. Alas, they are $8400, so cannot afford right now. I am rather new to the forums and the Tektons caught my eye. Are these really all that and a bag of chips? people seem to be swooning over them (at least in 2017, I am only about 30 pages in the giant thread, so maybe the enthusiasm has died down by now?) Anyway, Just wanted to get some opinions from any folks who have heard both and what they liked best and why. Thanks for your time.
