Tekton Double Impacts

Mike, 

When you said updated DI, I was thinking a PMD DI which are in the price range I was guessing at. When will we hear more about this new upgraded DI? Is it something that our current DI's can be updated to? Inquiring minds must know! :) Any info anyone could give on them would be appreciated. 

Terry's good natured challenge would be a great one to hear the results of. I've never personally heard the Wilsons, but many seem to compare Tektons sound to them. It would be very interesting to hear how they actually compare. Something tells me the DI's would make a very good account of themselves. When I first got my DI's and shared my impressions of them many doubted they could be as good as I was describing or that I preferred them over my Legacy Audio Focus SE's. Comparing them to your Wilsons would take things up a notch or two......or three! 

Question guys. I can't find a pic of the backside of the DI. Are there bass ports on the back? Are the holes in the front of the speaker next to the mid drivers ports or really big holes for the grill pins?

Mofojo,
there are two rear bass ports and the four small ports on the front next to the mid drivers.

Wow!  This thread still lives?  I must confess that I usually do not go out to chat rooms and post.  The post I made here a few days ago is probably my first or second time posting here since I have been an AudiogoN user. Usually, when a review of mine is posted, I get a bunch of emails afterwards and that's generally enough going back and forth regarding something I said for me.  Readers tell me I'm either a good writer and that they were enlightened about a piece, or they'll say I'm a total idiot. Actually I do enjoy the reader's emails because at least I know they're reading my reviews and I respect that they have their opinions whether they agree with me or not.

In terms if the DI "challenge", sure, I would love to have the opportunity to put them through their paces and evaluate them in my system.  I need to add here, though, that VAC has informed me that they are sending me an amp and preamp for review and that I need to put 200-250 hours on them for break-in before I do any serious evaluation.  I have also been asked to contact a couple of distributors who want gear reviewed that for possible opportunities.  So keeping that in mind, you'll have to tell me if you are wanting me to do a review of the DIs or if you want me to spend a weekend listening to them and coming back here and sharing my findings.  We can discuss.

The review on the DI will go up on hometheaterreview.com on the 20 (Monday) of this month.  Hope you guys enjoy reading it.
