Upgrade to 7-tweeter array

About the Upgrade to 7-tweeter array

The Tekton Design 7-tweeter array upgrade is based on U.S. Patent 9247339 and represents a proprietary innovation in loudspeaker design. This upgrade is available as a customization option for several Tekton speaker models, including the Pendragon and other full-range designs. The array consists of seven 1-inch soft-dome tweeters arranged in a circular, polygon-oriented configuration where six outer tweeters function as an ultra-light upper midrange transducer surrounding a central tweeter that handles the highest frequencies. The design achieves what Tekton calls "perfect midrange" by utilizing the extremely low moving mass of tweeter drivers (between 0.2 and 0.5 grams) to accurately reproduce midrange frequencies. Each tweeter in the array moves approximately one-third of a gram at 440 Hz to reproduce musical notes with exceptional accuracy. This configuration provides proprietary controlled directivity, projecting a precisely focused acoustical power pattern similar to a horn or waveguide without the associated distortion and ringing. The upgrade significantly improves transition smoothness between woofers and high-frequency drivers while maintaining flawless tonal balance across the critical listening range.
