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.

Well what do know, I stand corrected. Room corrected that is. This time it's the Double Impacts and a Raven Blackhawk integrated with a Live Dirac PC. Still sounds much better corrected. The comparision will be much more meaningful with the bass traps and panels that are soon to arrive.

I'll follow your lead Bullitt and try the DI's closer to the wall. I'm guessing this is done to clean up the low frequency SBIR and ease the job for wideband room correction.

Hi all - just wanted to FYI that I’m now using Rythmik servo subs with my Impact Monitors with excellent results.  I’ve added pictures to my system page if you want to see them. Thanks.

I have sent 3 emails now to Tekton without a reply.
Does this company answer emails?

When I saw my DI order go out lightning fast, I knew there was a mix up. Called and Eric picked up. Problem solved. We'll see how how the grills go.

 Bill - awesome job, I can almost smell the solder.
