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.

@charles1dad , @mac48025: Thanks for posting pictures of your systems. I can almost "hear" what your systems sound like by looking at your gear, your room and how you have it set-up.

Kdude,
very interested in your take on the Lyngdorf. Everything I have read points to it being a pretty amazing piece. If I could get rid of a big stack of components and replace with a 20lb integrated with no loss of sound quality and the benefit of room correction that would be the cats ass!

Personally, I appreciate reading the thoughts that others have when I know they have well-trained ears for music and present their thoughts in an open-ended manner. We are all individuals that have different tasts in types of music and what we hear within that room.
Thank you grannyring for posting your thoughts, comparisons, and examples of the Tekton Double Impact speakers, and to many other individuals that also contribute to our education.

I have tried, but the handshake between Audiogon and Google Photos hasn’t been working for me, at least on my system. It’s the application that Audiogon uses, and Google or my security settings don’t care for it.

I’ve refrained from using a photo sharing site, but maybe it is time to do so.

If you or others have any thoughts on alternatives, especially easy ones, please share.

Your post is motivating. At a minimum, I can list the system components.
