Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers
We have had many discussions/arguments over tekton speakers in the past, mainly involving a couple posters who thought their $4000 tektons sounded better than the highest price Wilson’s and other high budget speakers.
In the latest Stereophile magazine, they did a review of the $30,000 tekton’s. In this Steteophile issue, they rate these $30,000 tekton’s as class B. When you look at the other speakers that are in the class B section, you will notice most of these speakers range in price from $5000-$8000. So it looks like you have to spend $30,000 on a pair of tekton’s to equal a pair of $5000 Klipsch Forte IV’s sound quality.
If I compare these $30,000 class B tekton’s, to some of the class A speakers, there are some class A speakers for 1/2 the price (Dutch & Dutch 8C, Goldenear triton reference), or other class A speakers that are cheaper (Magico A5, Kef blade 2).

After reading through 7 pages of this thread, I definitely will not ever consider Tekton speakers again. The fact that the owner of the company is quite pompous (hope I don’t get sued for saying that) and my previous purchase of Pendragons which I returned in 2012 makes me want to run the other way. I don’t care who is right or wrong but the owner of Tekton needs to acquire a much thicker skin to stay in the game. |
@audition__audio Indeed, the box is part of the system and the designer has to take that into account. Simple boxes can be a problem for amateurs making DIY speakers. Jerry |
