Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Tekton uses some Pro Sound woofer in the DI speakers. I know the Pendragons I tried had 10 in pro sound woofers. I also owned for 10+ years Vandersteen 2CE signatures (not the sig 2) and you can’t beat the quality of the speakers and sound considering they are priced so low. It is one of the true bargains in high end audio. Never heard the DI so can’t comment on them. Lots of people seem to like them. My only hesitation would be is after people had them a while, would they be tired of them and move on to something else? With the Vandersteen I was happy with the speakers for 10+ years.
Tekton Double Impact vs. Vandersteen 2ce sig II
Good evening folks, just looking for opinions on the Tektons vs. the Vandersteens. They are both right around the same ballpark in price (3k) so should be a fair fight. I have been a Vandersteen fan for a long time. I have their old 2C and find it to be a very special speaker and is musical in a way that is hard to describe. Recently I heard the Treo CT and it was on a whole other level of clarity and musicality, but still with that signature Vandy sound. Alas, they are $8400, so cannot afford right now. I am rather new to the forums and the Tektons caught my eye. Are these really all that and a bag of chips? people seem to be swooning over them (at least in 2017, I am only about 30 pages in the giant thread, so maybe the enthusiasm has died down by now?) Anyway, Just wanted to get some opinions from any folks who have heard both and what they liked best and why. Thanks for your time.
