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.

I got the PMD Studio Monitors today. They are interesting little speakers that I will have fun playing with over the next several weeks. I hooked them to some old Levinson and Triode Labs gear that I had on hand. Awesome midrange on them, and surprising bass response, so far.

I purchased my SE's through Mike at Audio Archon and would highly recommend anyone to do so.

The unthinkable has happened!  My 3-week old MZ2 just bit the dust.  I'm hoping someone here can help.  I had been burning in new CT GE ICs for about 25 hours when I noticed there was no longer sound from the basement.  I did some troubleshooting and everything points to the MZ2.  I have never had tube equipment before so maybe it's something simple? 

Music plays from my DAC (used as pre) to my amp but not when the MZ2 is in the loop.  No sound through headphones either.  Tried all three inputs and nada.  I have the stock LPS and the power switch light is red and the MZ2 turns on, just no sound reaching any outputs.  All equipment is connected to a Brick Wall for surge protection so I'm sure an electrical surge was not the issue.

I thought I would ask here first before contacting LTA.  Unfortunately it's a holiday weekend.  Was really looking forward breaking in these new CT GEs as well as two new power cords.  The MZ2 is a much better pre than my DAC.
