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.

grannyring,
were you the "Bill" to suggest the FryBaby2 to Jeff Day over on his Blog, if so, what do have cooking? Do you have any Dueland interconnect available. Pm if you like. Best, Rob

No, that was not me. Funny. I have one set out for a Agoner to try and will let you know if he plans to return them. My sense is he will keep them and sell off his big $ set of ICs.

Can you really compare a set like the Double Impact SE to something as dazzling as the KEF Blades?

Yes I believe you can compare them sonically. Visually, fit and finish not so much. I owned the previous version of the KEF reference and much prefer the DIs.

Has anybody here tried a class D amp with their Tekton's? I'm making some changes in my system and would like to try class D amplification, but I'm hesitant to take the plunge.
