Tekton 4-10 Subwoofer

So I have maybe 30 hours music on the subs now.  They are both sitting just outside the sides of the DI's and they are really great so far.  I was listening to "The Best" by Awolnation last night during a long 4+ hour music session.  There is just a wall of sound coming at me.  The bass is absolutely incredible.  I am letting the Tekton 4-10s run up to about 55Hz and the gain is at about 10% (if that).  The HSU VTF15H's in the corners are set to about 10% gain and are cutoff lower, around 35Hz.  If anyone reading is in the Phoenix area and thinking about Tekton and can get a hold of me through Audiogon somehow, I would be happy to audition.

Not surprised to hear these are great subs. They have three things going for them: 1) Four drivers. Four spread out beats one, every time. 2) High compliance. At least I think that is the word for it. When you tap on the driver it moves easily. and 3) Eric Alexander. There is no denying it, the man is on a roll.

My setup shipped today. Sadly, had to push pause on the basement build because of Coronavirus, I work for a major airline, so my career is in jeopardy at the moment. I’ve got a Parasound A21+ ready to go that I bought a few weeks ago, but I’ll be setting them up (DI upgraded, 2x 4-10, DI wide center) in my family room with my Marantz 6012 until this country and my industry unfcuks itself. Itll be a while...

I just placed my order for a pair of 4-10 subs with high-gloss obsidianschwarz (jet black) finish. These will accompany my Tekton Encores with same finish. I could have gone for the 2-10s but sometimes we do like to party and with our backyard patio adjacent to the listening room having open air access, it was a no-brainer. :)

I also ordered a pair of 4-10 subs in Teaberry Blossom color to match my upgraded DIs. They will be placed to the inside of the DIs which are 9' apart. I will use this placement for a start. Room is 24'x24'x22'h(A Frame). Its a tough placement since the speakers are on the 32 deg. angled wall.
