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.

@craigl59 :

Thank You!!! for your earlier response to my question regarding JRiver.

The very steep learning curve was what had held me off using it in the past, and you've confirmed that it still has a steep learning curve.

I'd like to keep things simple but realize I'm leaving some control and performance on the table by not investing the required time to learn and be proficient with JRiver.

Hey Corelli,

Did I read correctly you are in Grand Rapids, MI? If so, can I come and check these things out sometime? I've read too many positive attributes to not give them a listen.

Thanks!

Terry

Well, thats some spirited, but relevant, debate regarding amps! I congratulate everyone for maintaining their cool!! Can’t wait for porscheracer’s report once he has had a chance to fully integrate the DIs into his system.....

Shayne,
This is a high  quality thread.  Different perspectives stimulate dialogue. You can disagree with someone yet respect their input based on their unique experiences. That has been displayed here on more than a few occasions.
