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.

Might want to do a recount jetter......at least 25 Tekton owners on this thread. If you really want to hear from a lot more go to the Tekton Owners thread at AK....over 100 pages from Tekton owners! We are just getting started here :)

I realize we may be a bit over zealous about our Tektons but we have good reason for doing so......as do many other speaker brand owners.

Kenny,

the little MZ2 is going to shock you. Every time I look at that tiny black box hooked up to the Goliath DI's I shake my head in disbelief......how can something so small drive something so large so well?

Mac,
Well said,Thank You.
I'm not active on AK but your right,Lots of happiness over there.

On to a diff. subject I know you have said you probably will get a tube amp eventually,some kind of DHT.I'm wandering if you have checked out some of the first watt amps from Nelson Pass.
Just might be another option for you in my opinion.

The MZ2 is small going to be very easy to add in my system after having much bigger preamps and or Intergrateds.

Enjoy,

Kenny.

Can you experts tell me what make are the tweeters in the DI? Know the Eminence woofer from the discussion above and am thinking of getting some replacements for those accidents that happen with my pets and occasional electronic spikes (also...have you heard the Telarc Wellington Victory album with the exploding fireworks? It will kill a tweeter in a heartbeat...). Thanks. My serial numbers are 229 and 230 in case they have changed over the run.
