Tekton Electron SE

I had a pair of Tekton Double Impacts that I sold when I moved to a smaller home. After a year of evaluating various smaller speakers I decided to go back to Tekton but with the more compact Electron SE. In my room these speakers work perfectly. The bass on these smaller speakers is unbelievably deep and tight. I miss none of the punch from the bigger Double Impacts. On mine's I used a single Beryllium tweeter on the middle of the array. The tops on these are very extended and crisp clear more so than the DBs. The imaging and sweet-spot is electrostatic-like with excellent ability to present the faintest details in a recording. In my appreciation other than the ability to convey a "bigger" bass the Electrons have a more refined sound and the bass in my room is more than sufficient with a tighter presntation than that of the DB's. Feel free to send questions if you have any.

In that case we would say he is hypothetical.

I’ve been eyeballing some Electron SEs myself. Would a Musical Fidelity M2si have enough for them?
Easily.

Sorry if you said this already and I missed it misty. But its been a while and wondering what if any changes you've noticed. Mine (Moabs) were great right out of the box and did improve but seemed to follow Eric's guidance of only about 50 hours break-in. So curious what you heard with yours.

People wonder why the hatred for tekton speakers. I have moabs. In my opinion people who say they have heard them and don't like them have either not really heard them or let their bias get in the way. Some of them i think are angry that they wasted 20 or 30k on speakers that don't sound any better than 4k tekton's. Just my opinion.


Oh, I'm sure there's ones spent ten times 20 or 30k who are even more butt hurt. Making it so normal working stiff guys can afford better sound than your average well-heeled hedge fund manager , its just not fair. Where's the white glove setup? Where's the Faberge Egg? Oh, the humanity!Β

I don't get all the hate for Tekton here. Ive had mine for three weeks now and I am thrilled with them. After hearing mine my neighbor is picking up a set. I mean they are great sounding speakers. Best ever,probably not. Amazing for the price, for me yeah. 2k all in and could not be more excited. I listened to all kinds of speakers. Tektons did it for me and let's be honest part of it was the look. Love that tweeter array. Im also not a 30 yr audiophile. This is my first higher end setup. Explain to me how they are bad speakers and I wasted my money.

Let the dude enjoy his Tektons.

Hard for haters to do anything but hate. Don't help none they can't read neither. Look at the one above, got not one thing right, couldn't comprehend a thing to save his life. Pages and pages, went on for weeks, still after all this time does not understand a single word. Not. One. Word. Pathetic.

Mine are sounding better than ever. Forget exactly my original review. It went something like this: πŸ˜πŸ˜β€οΈβ€οΈπŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ”ˆπŸ”ˆπŸ”ˆπŸ”ˆπŸ”ˆπŸ˜β€οΈπŸ˜πŸ”ˆπŸ”ŠπŸ”ŠπŸ˜πŸ˜β€οΈπŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’• Mega triggering haters everywhereπŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ˜‚

Some of the responses to what I consider a nice post are very reflective of America today. The OP likes his speakers and wants to share that joy with others. What is wrong with that ?Β 

The problem is if one person feels free to express themselves, well then maybe another one gets the idea this is okay, and before you know it people thinking for themselves, not following directions, we just can't have it. So we have these people, some call them haters, I prefer libtard and Stalin went with useful idiots but haters will do its more general, they run around mindlessly spewing hatred on anyone who doesn't toe the party line. Tekton is new with new and highly disruptive technology. A lot of guys overpaid massively and are butt hurt. Others can't hear and are butt hurt. Basically its BH right on down the line.

Good to hear. Fits in with everything else. Eric has done remarkable work producing so many exceptionally fine speakers filling out so many little market niches. You're smart to take advantage of that. Smart, and happy. Helluva combination.
