Important Note If you start here, keep in mind this is round one with the base, first gen ZU Omen. Then I review ZU Dirty Weekend II and finally Tekton Uruz, which are essentially a top model Lore by design...
Because you continued to ask...I am finally reviewing the Tekton Lores in depth, but they are not alone! What better way to spice up a speaker review than to pit two badass full range budget speakers together. I will break them down based on Fit N Finish, components and finally (all you care about) is the sound.
You can skip to 18:45 to hear what I think about the sound differences. It was an absolute pleasure reviewing these two cousins. Amazingly I didn't get tired of hearing the same tracks six times over while noting the minute details. There can only be one King and it was a close match.
