Just came across a review of the Tekton Brilliance at Stereo Times:

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.

THANK YOU, DAVID, AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES. MY LISTENING EXPERIENCE SINCE NOVEMBER CONFIRMS THIS REVIEW'S CONCLUSION. I CAN ADD THAT THE BRILLIANCE CLARIFIES THE VOICES OF COMPLEX SYMPHONIES. I USE IT, AS I'VE SAID, WITH THE FIRST WATT F-3. IT PUTS OUT A MODEST 10 WATTS: http://www.firstwatt.com/f3.html IN MY SMALL LISTENING SPACE,I FIND NO LISTENING FATIGUE OR BASS EMPHASIS. I SO ENJOY LISTENING TO ALL MY MUSIC. WHAT MORE IS THERE TO SAY. QUESTIONS WELCOME, HOWEVER. |
@333jeffery: That's awesome! Congratulations! You may be the first in an amazing speaker launch as @mac4805 was for the Double Impacts. Really looking forward to your impressions of the Ulfberths and hopefully also comparative points with respect to the Double Impacts. Have to say that these are fun times. First the Double Impacts, then the Linear Tube Audio pairing, and now the Ulfberths and Brilliance. Good times, indeed. |
