Wilson to Tekton to ????


Ok, here we go again.  I started 2 threads a few years ago.  "What did I do?" was the title of the first one. Look it up if interested.

This is what I did. I sold my used Wilson Sophia Series II for $1000 more than I paid for them. Then I spent most of that money on Tekton Moab speakers.   The system was in a really large room and the Moabs did not look out of place and the fact the actual speakers were higher from the floor gave me a sense of "Being There".  I loved them.

Now I moved to a smaller house, room.  These Moabs now look like I has 2 standing closets in the corners of my room. Black in color does not help.  But the sound is still very nice and I plan on buying the Townsend bases for them.

But I know in my heart that the Wilson speakers would be perfect in this room.

Here is what I have learned. Never Sell Anything.

Don't worry about looks (assuming that is a possibility for you, I know some people can't get past looks) and just think about how they sound.  I don't think it is generally possible to have speakers too big for a room.

With big sensitive speakers you need an amp that does a good job at very low power.   This often points to an SET but there are good ss amps too.

 

Lot of comments in this thread from people who have never heard Tektons....may they celebrate in their superiority and be happy.
