Tekton Double Impacts

I currently own the Lores (which have been great) so I'd like to ask two questions to those of you that might own the DI Monitors, the Electrons or the ENZO 2.7s (the DIs are just too big for me).  First, the Lores throw a massively wide soundstage far beyond the with of the speakers...how do the DI Monitors, Electrons or 2.7s compare?  Second, the Lores are not as tonally accurate/clear when playing piano, strings, voices, etc. as the Maggie 1.7i's or the Kef R 500s...how do the DI Monitors, Electrons or 2.7s perform in this area.  Thanks in advance for anything you can share from your experiences.

@sbayne -  thanks for the heads up.  I'm hoping that anyone on the forum who has owned or seriously compared maggie 1.7i s to the DI Monitor, Brilliance or electron can chime in as to clarity and tone....Overall, it would be easier to just talk to Eric but as many have noted, he is so darn busy (good thing) that he is hard to get through to.  I have noticed that he follows and comments from time to time on Audigon @Tektondesign so maybe he will see this and offer some thoughts.  I suspect there are a lot of people who would like to hear about what differentiates the DI, DI Monitor, Brilliance and Electron from each other.  I'm certain that musicality was the goal for all four of them but what are the nuances that make them different?  It is these nuances that allow people to choose the Brilliance instead of the Electron for their system with less concern about having to make a return.

@audioarchon   Granted they are "fresh out of the box" but based on what you hear initially,  how would you describe/compare the DI-SE mid and top end to planars and electrostats...relative to clarity, liquidity, size, and sounds like live music??

@nitrobob  no doubt that 110 db at the listening position which is 120 db at 1 meter is going to be a challenge for most speakers...if you don't mind the look of these and if you can put them 3' out from the wall, I think you may find them up to the challenge... http://www.spatialaudio.us/m3-triode-master
give Clayton Shaw a call, tell him about your DI experience and what you are looking for and I think he will give you an honest opinion.  otherwise, maybe these since they will give you that ribbon sound and play really loud

@agronatz   Beyond price, we all have our top 3... the things we treasure most... such as clarity, imaging, huge soundstage, sounstage depth, soundtage height, dynamic impact, no stridency, etc, etc, etc.

And, key for most of us, how to get the most for the least...(constrained budget).  

My guess is that if Tekton markets a 4 ohm speaker it's because they think it sounds best that way... They are not going to add a cheap resistor that bumps it to 8 ohms but screws up the intended voicing.... meaning if you want an 8 ohm version (which other companies wouldn't offer) Tekton is going to make sure it sounds right.... so I'm ok with having options and paying for them as long as I know what I'm getting. 

I have a different thought about the pricing issue....and I fully admit that it is probably incorrect.

When you think about it, there are at least 50+ successful loudspeaker companies...which basically says that there are lots of different tastes in what sounds good/right.  And you don't have to look very hard to see that every year, new players are entering the market, creating more competition and selling loudspeakers....and current players are responding by offering new models and various improvements and technology.

In many ways, it reminds me of the guys making/selling cars....in order to remain visible, you need to be creating buzz.  And creating buzz usually means either of two things....new product or lower price.

Obviously, a smaller guy like Tekton does not influence a market in the same way as a bigger player like KEF....but on the other hand, the smaller player has to find a way to keep their momentum moving forward when competing with a powerhouse like KEF...or B&W..(fill in name here).
