Zu vs. Tekton? -- your comparisons on price, build, sound


My brother in law just bought a pair of Zu Soul Supreme speakers to go with his Rogue RP7/First Watt J2 combo. 

He's clearly chasing that lower watt/higher sensitivity magic.  

I've asked him about his interest in Devore, AudioNote and some other pricier, high sensitivity speakers, and they're just not coming up used at a price he wants to buy. 

So, he's going with Zu.

Zu and Tekton are in the same price region. How do their similarly priced models compare?

If you have researched Zu and Tekton and compared similar priced models:

What differences in your system did you notice in their sound?

How would you compare their build quality — cabinets, drivers, etc.?

Go to youtube and search ZU vs Tekton.  There is a guy that have done a number of review videos comparing the two which include sound demo's.  I've watched all those videos and the bottom line is that with the models compared, the Tekton wins on sound and Zu wins on looks.  The models he compared were the Tekton Lore vs Zu Dirty Weekend and Omen.  There is also a comparison between the Tekton Uruz (a lore with ribbon tweeter) and the Zu Omen.
