Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time"


Just got in house for review for hometheaterreview.com Tekton Design’s new, The Perfect SET, which is close to 100dB efficient and never dips below 8 ohms, which Eric built to be used with SET "flea watt" amplifiers. It is a front ported design using a 12 inch woofer and his patented array of small transducers that function as a midrange driver with a single tweeter in the middle. I set them up in a system with a great 2A3 SET amplifier and found them so superlative I did not stop listening for over five hours! Taking about "goosebump time" the music was so beautiful that
I lost track of time.

These speakers have all the virtues of the other Tekton speakers, speed, utter transparency/micro-details, great soundstaging, and that special "aliveness" that I experience when I listen to my Ulf’s. What really amazed me was what the Perfect SET was delivering on the bottom end frequencies, subterrainian/taut powerful bass, that was shaking the room, all coming from at most 2.5 to 3 watts.

If you love SET amplifiers this speaker is a match made in heaven, and remember this pair just arrived and is not totally burnt in yet.

Since every Tekton Speaker you review is an audio gift from Heaven, perhaps we all should just buy Tekton.   We could all save a lot of money.   Looks to me like he takes the same basic drivers and puts them in different sized enclosures.  Do you use Tekton speakers in your personal system?
Yes, I tried using a high current SS 200 watt amplifier that sounded great on this speaker.  However, the pairing with the 2A3 was really special for my tastes.

You haters just don't get it.  Eric's breakthrough design offers world class performance at very reasonable prices.  Yes, I have reviewed four models over the last three years, and none of them are "stinkeroo's".

Question: Mr. Stereo5, have you ever heard any of the Tekton speakers?

Also, in the last two years numerous reviewers have raved over the different Tekton models and many gave them their speaker of the year award.  I guess all of us were hood-winked to come to this conclusion.
