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.

Teajay,
I'm very happy for you that you have discovered such a interesting system that I can see you are truly passionate about.I have read most of your reviews and I truly enjoy and respect your humble and passionate writing style.

I receive my pair of DI's next wed,I will give them ample time to see if  I like them,still a little doubtful.I will give this thread a full review regardless of the outcome.

Kenny.

A lot of DI owners are just smiling right now. 

Just finished listening to a Schumann Carnaval recording/Naxos/Giltburg.
This is THE BEST piano reproduction I have ever heard in my home.  The clarity, air, weight, and coherence are just fantastic.
Kenny, me thinks you will have to work very hard to not love this speaker.

Just the same, I am eagerly waiting for the Triple Impact.

Thoughts, recommendations on synergistic DACs to pair with the Double Impacts?

Or put another way, what would your top three choices be, given your system / preferences? Current or wished for.

I've had my DI's since early Jan, I know Eric mentioned in a previous post that the upgrades were available from the beginning but for whatever reason I was not made aware of them. How would one go about the upgrade? My boxes were demolished in shipping, plus I wouldn't want to ship them off and take a chance of damage plus the $$ involved.
@mac48025 Another Detroit DI owner here as well.
