They aren't really $3K. If you go to Tekton's Facebook page you will see that the $3K is like a preorder deposit. They will still charge you $7K. The exact post by Tekton was "$7K per pair. $3K deposit gets you in the queue."
That might seem reasonable compared to Pure Audio Project but it is absurdly expensive compared to the Tekton Moabs and it is hard to imagine them being better than the Moabs but only time will tell. I can tell you that I have never heard an open baffle speaker that out performed the Moabs.
