Tekton Electon/DI compares to what?

I know there is a lot of love and hate for Tekton on this and various other audio forums. I'm not here to discuss the validity of anything but would love impressions from listeners. Given that these are internet-direct, I can't hear before buying so I need the online community's help. Being in Canada, an in-home trial is a very expensive en devour! 

I'm looking at specifically the Electron as it's slightly smaller for my condo living room size. There is talk of a Mini-Ulff but with no info online other than its mentioning, I'll leave it out for now.

Now I understand the Electron/DI sound very similar, almost the same. So with that in mind, for those that have actually heard either of these speakers, what do they sound similar to so I can try to demo a pair to get a jist of what to expect? What speakers have you directly compared against them? 

Other speakers I have on my list are: Harbeth 30.1, Audio Note E LX Hemp, Totem Sky Floorstander, ATC 19, Salk Silk series, Klipsch Forte III, JBL 4312SE.

I'm probably as much of a Vandersteen booster as the Tektoners here are of their preferred brand.  I for one would love to hear the Tektons to experience what all the allegiance to their sound is about.  Anyone in central PA that would be willing to host an open minded Vandy guy to hear your Tektons??

Thanks for everyone's feedback and suggestions.

I had emailed Tekton about a week ago about some product information and still have not heard back. Customer service is pretty important to me especially if I can't buy locally...
