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.

I have a pair of Perfect SET speakers, serial #8.  I went back and forth with Eric in email about which speakers to get with my amp..   and recommended these.  I did the usual search online for reviews, but couldn't find any.  I just decided to take a chance....

They took a bit to break in, but WOW.   I'm not mr. audiophile, just know that it sounds right to me.   

I'm just a happy customer.

jhajeski "What professional reviewer even talks like this?   Based on "Eric's" "breakthrough" technology?? Cmon..."
They are one's who think, reason, and act on a higher plane, sphere, and level than those like yourself who are profoundly limited, restricted, and confined by outdated notions of performance, engineering, and design, @jhajeski.
