Tekton Perfect SET

Hi - I saw in your reply that you had both the Tekton Perfect SET 12 and Perfect SET 15. I am having trouble deciding on which to get.

I intend to drive the speakers with a SET amp - Dennis Had, it puts out at most (depending on the tubes you use) 12W.

When I contacted Tekton they recommended the 12" driver but I see that you went for the 15. Anything you can say that will help me decide? Are the 15" speakers bass heavy? I'm also running a Decware 2.5W SET amp using Omega Compact AlNiCo Monitors and there isn't much bass although they sound magnificent. Thoughts???

@sweiss420,
Did you ever get the Perfect SET 12?

@dtximages,
Congratulations! What amplifier are you using?
Owners of the Tekton Perfect SET speakers are consistently pleased with their performance. It seems to be the sleeper model in the Tekton line.

I agree with the suggestion to try both amplifiers with the Perfect SET speakers and compare results.  My gut feeling is that overall the tubed Dennis Had amplifier will be sonically superior and more engaging/involving with this speaker.

I’d heed the advice from Eric. He must believe that a 12" woofer is totally sufficient for the cubic space you have with proper speaker placement. I believe this speaker with the Dennis  Had  amplifier has much potential for success.
