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.

@kosst_amojan --  I'm just curious how many high end companies you can name who offer a sixty-day trial period to audition equipment, and will pay shipping both ways?

I have auditioned cables, a preamp, an amp, and, if my memory serves, at least one DAC over the years. I sometimes had a week--two weeks at the most--to audition, and without exception I paid the return shipping if I did not wind up buying what I was sent. That seemed fair enough to me. But now it has the Tekton detractors clutching their pearls?

To suggest that this policy somehow reflects poorly on the company is frankly silly.

mofojo, Anyone should be able to post whatever they want.  We are all capable of doing our our filtering and taking what we want from the thread.  If anything, it's the moderation/censoring that's a unacceptable.

You should try Audio Adviser. They pay shipping both ways on everything. I have tried CD players, Pre -Amps, and returned both on their dime. Never have purchased speakers, but I’m assuming its the same deal

 I guess its easier to join than get your posts removed  YAY !

 Why "WAS" BE so bad ? Not so much now?
  As a Consumer I like to be informed on my purchases !
