Tekton Double Impacts


Anybody out there heard these??

I have dedicated audio room 14.5x20.5x9 ft.  Currently have Marantz Reference CD/Intergrated paired to Magnepan 1.7's with REL T-7 subs.  For the vast majority of music I love this system.  The only nit pick is that it is lacking/limited in covering say below 35 hz or so.  For the first time actually buzzed the panel with an organ sacd. Bummer.  Thought of upgrading subs to rythmicks but then I will need to high pass the 1.7's.  Really don't want to deal with that approach.

Enter the Double Impacts.  Many interesting things here.  Would certainly have a different set of strengths here.  Dynamics, claimed bottom octave coverage in one package, suspect a good match to current electronics.

I've read all the threads here so we do not need to rehash that.  Just wondering if others out there have FIRST HAND experience with these or other Tekton speakers

Thanks.

Same thing with the Atmos. Some people say meh.... and some people say it is a real eye opener if done right. I have no idea myself. As I say. I've just only had 5 speakers.
@david_ten @kdude66 Thanks for your response. Just for my knowledge purpose i posted 4/8 ohm version question
On the 4/8 ohm question, in conversations with Eric, he REALLY dislikes the idea of 8 ohm. His stance is, old technology and if you have an amp that requires it, you should replace it. He says his 4 ohm should be fine with any well designed tube amp.

I ordered an upgrade set of the Double Impact SE today with a center channel. 4-6 weeks to ship Eric tells me. I'll post a review when I get them sorted out. I believe I'll have one of the first sets. At this point I'm trying to imagine how they could sound significantly better than the DIs I have now. In the meantime I have two phono pre-amps coming. The pro-ject Tube Box and the Emotiva SP-1. Going to compare tube vs SS. I also realize I need to upgrade my Denon 4520 too. Looking at Outlaw SS. That's going to be expensive for me, but I know that's the weak link in my signal chain right now with my Denon 4520
Hi iamasif,

sorry for the delayed response--this Audiogon forum format is not very user friendly;

I have not had a chance to really test out the DIs w/ my set up; still need to find time to fiddle around w/ the Anthem AVM60 w/ ARC, etc...  soon though!
