Title: Tekton New Pendragon -SE Loudspeakers
Post by: fine tunes1 on 18 Oct 2012, 02:54 pm
The new  -SE  Pendragon is a bit smaller  at 53 inches long X 10w X 13 d. For drivers the mid- woofer drivers
Are  8 inch  custom drivers from Seas ,the tweeters are Scanspeak ring radiators from the discovery line.
The Xover  for the inductors  are  Jantzen Copper coils, resistors are Mundorf, and for capacitors I strongly recommend the Mundorf Silver oil  capacitors for they are much more refined in every respective position
The performance is much more 3 dimensional. One more thing  would  like to mention.Eric has an Excellent
Loudspeaker painter and for extra cost you can have any color you want price will depend on finish
Such as. Candy apple.

So have you heard them?  What do they sound like? Comparisons to other speaker brands? Others in the tekton line?

I ordered the Pendragons with every available option and did one better trying to get the most out of them getting the best resistors I know of
Duelund of Denmark are by far the clearest sounding they  dissipate heat the best
Being pure graphite with a solid Silver conductor, and Sound city makes excellent outriggers that are very reasonable in cost and that will make any loudspeaker sound better.

Stereomojo just reviewed the normal Pendragon. It was very well received. I would love to hear more about the SE now.

Seems like a nice upgrade from the standard one. Although it might have been more appealing he managed to make it smaller. On paper they seem to be pretty close in size.

I think I might like the Seas Pendragon but I wasn't a huge fan of the Eminence guitar speakers as used in the regular version.
