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.

Hi @iamasif  
It depends on how good your sub is.  It sounds to me like you have a good one if your preset 2 is working well.  Preset 2 is sending more of the lowest frequencies to the subwoofer.  50hz is reasonable although the DI's should be strong down to 30 hz or so.  I would only suggest trying preset 2 with a 40 hz or even 35hz crossover on the DI's and seeing if that's an improvement.

Oh, and let me add that the highlight of my listening experience was Hendrix's "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)." Hendrix's guitar was crisp and taunt, batting back and forth between both speakers, his voice so clean in the middle. It was amazing. 
Evolvist,

Sounds like you fellas had a lot of fun and I enjoy reading a true evaluation of gear and not just speculation that some folks write.

Did you guys play Little Wing by chance,that's one of my favorites.

I've been wanting to hear the Ahb2 amp and may have the opportunity to borrow one locally in the near future.

I mistyped. Thinner and taller than the DIs. which is exactly what I needed for my space. The width is more of an issue for me. I have some electrostats and they are already tall so that did not bother me but the width dimensions for that wall with the TV in the middle will overwhelm that wall with equipment. These will even be less wide than the electrostats.
