Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions
Would be great if more speaker manufacturers would break in a few hours like zu audio does. My Woo Audio headphone amp needed 500(!) hours to properly break in. Darn Blackgate capacitors! Putting the Encores through rapid break in. I live in a sin...

Needs break in, hopefully. One hour on them so far.  I did not take care of unpacking instructions. Styrofoam everywhere. No damage to the drivers. High frequencies need refinement. 100 hours of anxious waiting.

Holy smokes, these babies are huge. Totally dwarf my Theil 2.3's. I looked at the sizes online, but it did not prepare me for how they look in person. Totally dominate my small listening room. Effin' gorgeous! Flawless dark grey finish. Undamaged ...

They are here!  Still in the boxes. Will unpack them this weekend. @jcarcopo, did your Art Audio Diavolo SET 300b Tube Amplifier have only an 8 ohm output? And were your Encores 4 ohm? I will be driving my 4 ohm encores with an 8 ohm tap from my W...

Looking at Tekton website and your original post, I noticed some differences. Now it seems as though they are 7 inch mid bass drivers instead of 6.5, and the woofer is dropped from 11 inches to 10 inches. I hope it’s not a bait and switch, put the...

Thanks jcarcopo! Just a week after I upgraded, Tammy called to tell me the order is ready! They will be shipped today! I can’t wait! I had the money for a pair of Ulfberhts, but no way would my small room need a pair of those. The Encores are prob...

I had an order of Moabs is going for over three months, I came into some extra money and I decided to upgrade to a pair of encores. Wow, when you build a great product and great price the waiting list grows considerably. I’m hoping they will be my...

prof,"Is there any speaker company pumping out as many models as Tekton?Dunno if that's a good or a bad sign."I would say it is a marketing sign. Once the manufacturer finds a winning model with, like the Lore that has been around for awhile, then...

After doing more research, a distributed bass array seems like a much better idea than a single huge subwoofer. I’m surprised I have not seen anything about this before. The price of the audio kinesis swarm seems reasonable for four passive subwoo...

Millercarbon,What is a DBA? Digital equalization? I do use the equalizer in iTunes with good results. I would not have a subwoofer without DSP now that I have gotten used to my Velodyne DD10 (now broken), it really evens out the bass in the room. ...

I have a pair of cs2.3's.  Had them for the last 20 years. I upgraded the coax mid/tweeter to the two magnet unit, this was pivotal in me keeping them, as I had a heck of a time taming the brightness.  A tube preamp helped considerably also. As pe...
