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.

Ha,ha thanks David. Part of it is, as I go through these boards many of the names are familiar but I can’t remember what someone said about their system 2 days ago let alone 2 weeks ago. So I have no idea what their system consists of. Just easier to click the person’s name, click "details" and then look at their system. That’s how Audiogon has set it up. Unfortunately, many people don’t use it.
Have any of the DI owners used or upgraded to the GAIA II loudspeaker feet? These are a bit more expensive than the Herbies Threaded Stud Gliders I am currently using, but appear to be more substantial and refined in their design. The Herbies cost around $130 as opposed to the $600 for the GAIA and I am wondering if there is enough additional improvement to justify the cost.
@craigl59 I tested the GAIA IIs with the DIs and SEs. The DIs come in under the weight specs and the SEs right at the outer limit.

I also wanted to save the price differential between the two, but in either case my recommendation would be to go with the GAIA Is.

You mean the larger GAIA Is that go for $1200 for 8? Seems like overkill as they support speakers up to 220 lbs and my DIs are only 118. The GAIA III only seem to go up to 70 lbs while the GAIA II are rated at 120. Did you notice a difference in quality with the GAIA Is over the IIs?
