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.?

I haven’t heard or owned either brand but I do have a pair of Omega DynaTens.  If you are looking for a speaker similar to DeVore 0/93’s these are worth a look.  They are a departure from Omega’s single driver design but still very minimalist, no crossover and organic materials used in the woofer / tweeter.  
 

Build quality / craftsmanship is outstanding.  These aren’t identical to the Devore, they don’t use the same woofer / tweeter - conceptually they are similar and do both use Seas woofers / tweeters.  
 

I just moved up to a new set of Towers and might put my Omega’s up for sale, at a used price they would be an absolute steal based on the build / sound quality.
