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.

captmobley,
Not sure how much of this thread you have read but MANY have used amps similar to yours and have been thrilled by the pairing.  Unless you listen to a significant amount of demanding large scale works (which I doubt given your amp preference) you would likely be very happy indeed.

Count me in on wishing all my friends here on this thread a Blessed Christmas.  I've said more than once it's given me much pleasure to exchange different ideas on this thread and learn from each others experiences. Also it's been great getting to know each others interests outside of the audio world that we all so enjoy.

Tom, that would make sense with your footers.  Like you, my audio room has a concrete foundation.  Hard to drain energy into concrete!  As long as these footers limit lateral movement of the speaker, I would be interested  at some point.  Regarding subs, I  looked at the Tekton subs.  Very big and heavy, limited info, ? specs makes the Hsu subs an easy pick.  Compact, many great reviews, and very well documented specs make me very confident these would take me down to just under 20Hz flat.  To be very clear, I do not want more bass out of my DI's, I want flat extension into the lowest octave.  As I write this, I am listening to "An English Christmas" recorded in Westminster Cathedral (a great Cd in quality and performance, especially given it was a DDD/1986).  I remember my old Mirage M-5si's, with two little 6.5" woofers, achieved greater "room lock" than any speaker I have owned (the Rotel 990 amp/Audioquest midnight did their part). Having had the great pleasure of touring many of England's great cathedrals and hearing a few of their organs and choirs, it's an experience not easily forgotten.  So when I listen to these great choirs, brass, and organ I want to feel those big pipes that I know are part of the performance. 
Thanx for the response.  I just spent several months in northern Europe and toured lots of cathedrals and heard incredible music also.    My Klipschorns have been in the corners for 21 years now and it’s hard to change.  I’m almost there.    I have a pair of bookshelf Tektons in my bedroom system and I heard Pendragons at RMAF 2015 and was very impressed.  
I’m in Syracuse, NY for the next few days if anyone could host me here.
captmobley,
Suggest  you hold on to your K-horns and  just order up the DI's.  You'll never know if it's for you until heard with your equipment in YOUR room.  Some will disagree, but for me an audition will take you just so far given the variables involved.  If you like the Pendragons, that is encouraging.  The DI's will take you to another level. 

So what performance was most memorable on your recent tour?
Wish you were near me Captmobley as I'd invite you over to hear the DI's and SE's ......but only if you returned the favor and let me hear your system! I love my 300B but also having a 2A3 and 845 is extreme and totally cool in my eyes. 

I agree with corelli that it would be best to hear the DI's in your room with your equipment. I think you'd be very happy with them but after 21 years with the Khorns your ears might having trouble adjusting to something else. The DI's are efficient but not Khorn efficient and that might end up being a deal breaker for you. 

Stop it corelli! All your talk of choirs, cathedrals and pipe organs has me yearning for a pair of subwoofers now! :)
