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.

teajay,

You've peeked my interest in the Micro as a preamp; a couple of questions if I may

What interconnects are you using between the Micro and the Triode or other amps you've run it with? 

Have you had other 6sn7 or 12sn7 preamps that you can offer comparison impressions vis a vis  the Micro?

Hi Dracule1,
Thanks for the clarification of the Hashimoto output transformers. I was not aware of their construction but am well aware of their reputation. As I wrote above , Japanese  double C core transformers are doing something very positive in my amplifier,.
