Tekton Pendragon Audition in SF Bay Area?

I have an Orbit Shifter LFU. Does that mean I wouldn't want to use the Omen Defs with it?

Breakbeat,

That's totally up to you and your specific needs...but if it was me, no I would not use a sub with the Omen Def's. But that's only because of my 2 channel direct music listening...I don't "need" a sub with the the full range Def's.

If I was 2 channel music direct with the Noesis, then I have to have a sub...no way around it.

The Def's for movies?, then of course use a sub.

Well, I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the Noesis. I talked to someone who owns the Zu Superflys, and he said he wouldn't recommend Zus since I want something for home theater.

I keep getting steered back to the Noesis, and I haven't found anything that seems better. The only competitor I've really found are the Seaton Catalysts, and they're more than I want to spend.

Makes total sense for for your needs, the noesis is way the to go, especially since you got that nice JTR sub. :)

Congrats! and enjoy...

I'm not sure why you were told the Zus would not be good for a home theater (perhaps the Superflys would not, I have not heard them in a theater setting). But I had a pair of Omen Defs that was used for both 2 channel and a home theater setup and they were excellent. I also owned the Tekton Pendragons and they also would work for both very well. I ultimately chose the Omen Defs as I liked their midrange presentation better, but either of those speakers would work very well in a home theater.
