I picked up a Calyx CTI this weekend. Sounds awesome with the DIs. What a wonderful little integrated. Very very precise with a hint of warmth and great flow or prat whatever you want to call it.
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.

I have a non dsd dac and have not tried dsd. There can be streaming issues with Dirac due to the convolution time delays. I have to rip to mkv to avoid pops and set a large buffer in jriver. Dirac may be a 90% soln as I still have to disable it for games and non roon\tidal streaming. HQplayer may output native dsd to Dirac. Thats how i run roon |
Looks like you can getter done through HQplayer via down sampling to 24/192 pcm (dirac filters up to 24/192) http://www.signalyst.com/consumer.html but I digress, now back to the double impacts? |
