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.

If I want Wilsons I will buy them.

 

then what’s the purpose of the OP? 🤔

Reading through this the Tekton negativity is amusing. I’m pretty sure “most” of the people that poo poo them have not heard them. 

But we do all have eyes. And that is the most widely expressed criticism, their appearance.

For me both Wilson and Tekton are butt ugly, badly conceived, brutalist designs. They look malevolent. 

For that reason neither would find a place in my system, when there are some beautiful speakers out there that sound every bit as good. There's no excuse for such bad design. I rather have a pair of beautiful girls to share my room that a pair of nightclub bouncers that dominate it.

Look....Another all knowing prophet.

The OP’s problem is one of the reasons why I started a new speaker business from scratch. It’s called blueprintacoustic.com I’m in it for the long haul, I am retired in my mid 50s and looking for something to do that I love. being able to change and adapt on speaker system, I don’t think it’s ever been attempted before. Check out the section called the configurator. I’d let you configure your own design in real time and get an estimate on approximately what the speaker will cost.. it’s been three years in the making and we finally have got the doors open. Our next move is going to be a custom show room on the west side of Cleveland. We’re having a blast and would love to talk to you about speakers. Hope you say hi sometime, thanks.
