Zu Omen Defs vs Tekton Pendragons
Honeybee2012, I am located in the Southeast part of Tucson. You can contact me at bwholley@gmail.com. 
pendragon base
I'm not sure what you mean by 'adjustable?' I own the Pendragons, and they have plenty of bass down to the mid 20's. There are no separate controls for adjusting the bass on the speakers, if that is what you mean. I have a very nice sub, but I onl... 
Zu Omen Defs vs Tekton Pendragons
As Morgan said, the Mundorf caps are an upgrade only. The cost from Eric is $750 (now listed on the Tekton site under the blog section). 
Zu Omen Defs vs Tekton Pendragons
Jkontuly, I am waiting for the Nano drivers to arrive from Zu. I am hoping they will get here near the end of August.I did get the upgraded crossovers for the Pendragons and have just passed the 300 hour mark on them. A very worthwhile upgrade. I ... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Sleeper52,I have had a pair of Pendragons for a few months now and have tried them with Audience AU24 'e' series (pricey), Morrow SP3 (good value), and 14 gauge ofc copper wire from Parts Express (cheapo stuff - did this when I wanted to try the s... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
I can't speak to the crossover update for the Lores, but I purchased the upgraded crossovers from Eric for the Pendragons and it is a substantial upgrade. I only installed the upgrade in one speaker so that I could do a direct comparison between t... 
Zu Omen Defs vs Tekton Pendragons
Doglog, There are no drawbacks (other than the extra $) at all. The upgraded Omen Defs improve slightly on the already fantastic midrange (vocals and guitar especially) -- quicker, more powerful, and increased dynamics. The greatest change is in t... 
Zu Omen Defs vs Tekton Pendragons
The Omen Defs are $3100 (shipping included), the Pendragons are $2500 + 200 shipping, so $2700. 
Tyler D2 orD3 with center channel
I'm late to this thread, but I owned the D1s with the Decade center channel and some SuperTowers for surround speakers. It was one of the best 2 channel/home theater combinations I have ever heard. If you have a decent spread between your main spe... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Not sure where you hear of "flat midrange" on the Zus. I have both the Zu Omen Defs and the Tekton Pendragons, and I much prefer the midrange on the Omen Defs. Granted I have not heard the Omens or Lores, but especially with the Zus, the Omens use... 
I am set on all but speakers, need advice on those
With that size of room, you might consider the the Zu Omen ($999 on sale right now, 60 day return policy). I have the Omen Defs and they are fantastic, but I have a pretty large room. Zu's are high on musicality. The Tekton Lore's have been gettin... 
Acoustic Zen or Tyler Acoustics or Dunlavy
I owned Tyler Decade D1s for over 2 years and they were fantastic speakers. They sounded great with all types of music, were easy to drive, and worked well for HT as well. I agree with Kedoades -- they perform above their price. I had to sell mine... 
My new ZU Omen Def's arrived
The height of the speakers off the floor will greatly affect the bass. If the distance is too large, you will lose quite of bit of bass depth. I had to play around with this for a while to get things dialed in correctly, and in my room, it seems a... 
I just ordered a pair of Zu Omen Def's
Aberyclark,You will not be disappointed -- the Omen Defs are a terrific speaker. I have had a couple of pairs now for about 4 months (one upgraded pair and one regular pair) and they are giant killers in my opinion. A few things I have learned tha... 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
Obrown,I am certainly no expert like Phil, but I have 2 pairs of Omen Defs (one with upgrade HO drivers, caps and internal wiring, and one stock pair). I have them in an upstairs loft, 35' x 15' x 8' (the second pair used for surround sound right ...
