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.

Hi. @david_ten !

Actually, my question should have been, "Has as anyone heard the Double Impact SE vs Double Impact BE?"

to all,

I saw, on the current Double Impact page of the Tekton site, where addition of the Beryllium Tweeters was a +$3500 option.  

If I were interested in upgrading my DI SEs... Is the difference in sound quality, the Beryllium Tweeters add, REALLY worth $3500?

Thanks to All for all the advice You have contributed to this thread.

Hi Tim. This goes back 6 months, so things may have changed. I was very keen on upgrading my SE speaker tweeter array to a BE array, after hearing the Ulfberth BEs. At that time, Eric said it wasn’t possible (SE specific). You may want to check with him. Plus, he should be in the best position to describe the differences between the standard and BE tweeter array.

Let us know what you find out!
Wow!  Finally got to the end of this thread. Started reading in October. Ordered the DI’s on New Year’s Eve and they arrived about one month later. Grills came another month later-no biggie as I think they sound much better without. 

In the meantime I’ve upgraded to a parasound hint6 from a zamp. Huge improvement there. Also went from 14ga bare wire to audio quest type 8. 
Mostly stream Qobuz and cds on a 20 yo Sony 5 disc changer.

I am in heaven with this system. 
Wish I would have gotten into this game 20 years ago but I settled on a pair of Cerwin Vega 3ways ran with a pioneer avr. I always knew I was missing something and now I know. 
i appreciate everyone’s knowledge and opinions on here. Thank you!

Not sure on what I should congratulate you on first--the new DI’s or reading the entire thread!
One of these days maybe I’ll read the whole thing--I’m sure it would bring many smiles. It has been a fun journey shared with a great group of individuals.
As you are finding out, the DI’s are very transparent and they readily reveal the gear you place upstream. My DI’s sounded good right out of a very cold box, and they just keep getting better as you tweak your system and room. So I encourage you to experiment with these variables and am sure your speakers will bring you years of enjoyment.
Glad this thread was helpful!
Room tweaks seem to be very intimidating to me. I have a decent size room but to the left of the left speaker is perpendicular to a hallway and parallel to an open stairwell. The wall running parallel along the right speaker has a large window and then a double glass door. Also a large window on the back wall. Figured I’d start with curtains but there really is a big void in the front to the left of the left speaker. I also feel a couple subs or 4 are in order and would love to hear some tubes with these speakers after all the rave reviews. I have never listened to a tube component so will probably get one with a generous return plan in case I can’t live with it. Mostly listen to rock/pop/dance however every type of music I’ve played on the DI’s sound special.
