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.?

Have had the Tekton Double Impacts (upgraded) for 2 years now, 2 channel only.  System, Svs SB 4000 sub, Audiolab 6000 transport, Benchmark LA-4 Preamp,  and their DAC 3B, powered by Peachtree Amp 500 with Amazon HD service for streaming.  Rock and Roll big time. Couldn't ask for a clearer more Dynamic sound and articulate TOO. CLARITY!!!  Have Focal 948's in another system, that I'm very fond of.  Tekton's are every bit as good, maybe better. May be the  room acoustics too. I got them in pencil gray color. Look nice, but sound great. They love Rock and Roll.Robert TN
