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.

LP,

I'm sorry to hear about any health issues in your family.

I totally agree with Charles,
I never take health and my hobby of music for granted I feel like every day that I can that I'm truly blessed also.

On the plus side,I'm almost positive that Eric can make you a 8ohm version of the Electron if that is what you want.

I wish you and your family nothing but the best,

Kenny.

Just a quick follow-up.
 Apparently successful surgery Wednesday, and now a long difficult rehab with much to do.
A heart felt thank you to all the special people who participate on this forum for all their sincere blessings.
Now back to improving our music.

Thank you, Kenny:
Here is all the info I have about the Placette linestage preamp. It seems to give me enough clean volume to fill the room with the music I enjoy. I'm just looking for the next improvement after I've settled on my omptimal speaker
as I said, mine does not have the controls in the more expensive model:
