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.

Craig,

Hopefully you had a Dachshound and not a Great Dane.

Teajay,

Thank's for that update on the MZ2S,I was wandering if au7 would be ok to use.I have much more of these in my collection than at's.

Lance,

What au7 tubes are you using with those vt99's.
I'm assuming the cover may not fit because of the tube height with adapters. 

How are your DI's doing for you,have you tried the Zotl40 with them.

Best,
Kenny.

@kdude66 - I have rolled in quite a few different tubes, right now I have NOS Amperex 12AT7's, I also like NOS Mullards. The VT99's have more gain in the Micro ZOTL. It's a very Tube friendly design when it comes to rolling.

I drilled holes in the Lexan top of the Micro ZOTL but Mark sells a pre drilled lid for $50.

i am still using the Micro ZOTL alone and wanted to get good break-in time on the DI's before making too many changes an once.

No, they are a family of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels.

AND, they have that many names because they are more important than you or me (LOL).
