Tekton Double Impact SE vs Kef R7 Meta

For my reference speakers focal magico q7,kharma ect it's only 10% of the price.in my book that's a giant slayer. Full of the best speakers satori makes and sound great play soft or loud. Even rockports are expensive. This is the glory of audio we live in. A great day of choices. I bought all my reverence equipment used < 50 % off met alot of nice audiophiles in my travels past 2 years wandering across America living in a van by the river eating government cheese1😃

devinplombier - i did only the single HF Be driver upgrade. At the time I bought mine in 2019 that was a $500 upcharge. That plus the grill and crossover upgrade cost me about $5,250. Well worth it at the time in my opinion. Today, 7 years later, that same configuration would be $6,185 (17.8% or 2.5%/Yr more). I’ve never looked at it that way, but that is very good for 7 years later, as 2.5%/Yr doesn’t even match the standard inflation rates. I’ve seen other prices increase at significantly higher rates over that time period. Still a GIANT SLAYER at just over $6K.

I've never heard Tekton speakers though certainly have heard, owned, and still own plenty of KEF speakers. The KEF line, unlike many others where various models sound nothing like others in their own line, do have a linear improvement to a basic "house sound" as you move up through their offerings. 

The reason I have zero desire to ever hear Eric's Tekton speakers is because I would never buy any due to his way of doing business. He had at least two popular YouTube reviewers look are some of his speakers and they found some problems. Instead of suggesting maybe there was an anomaly and offering to send another pair or repair the ones they had, he threatened to file lawsuits if they published a bad word about his speakers. If that is the way you want to run your speaker company, good luck. I won't ever do business with the likes of him.
