THX Mr. Sebrof
• no doubt about Tekton quality or value
• Zu seems to choose more aggressive marketing as well - no dealers, 2 floorstanders under 2K
• Both companies seem to attract similar group of audiophiles.
However, I am really interested in these two particular models. Here is why:
1) I pre-ordered Zu Omens
2) opportunity knocked and it might be possible to audition Lore speakers.
3) extended range drivers in both speakers appear to be very similar pro-drivers minus the fancy CNC phase plugs by Zu.
4) cab size, driver/tweeter location - all too similar.
Main differences are in the cab loading, slight difference in cab volume, tweeter implementation (ribbon v.s metal dome)

Zu Omen shipping was confirmed - should arrive around Nov.19th
Hopefully I'll be able to compare these two side by side in my own listening room.
But regardless of the outcome, Zu Omen and Tekton Lore might be one of the better values in today's hifi. (excluding DIY that is)
BTW
Anyone received their Omens yet?????
P.S
Cool video clip.

Got them up & running for over a week now.
Going through with break-in process. 160 hours out of Zu recommended 400 hours.
Initial impressions are very favorable but there are issues which might be concerning & noteworthy to potential buyer.
All issues, initial impressions, pictures etc. can be found on Audio Circle forum. Check it out if you seek a bit more of an "in depth" look into Omen speakers.
- if anyone has a specific question, please ask.
Cheers
