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.

@mac48025, thank you for your response. It makes plenty of sense. It's also pretty cool that we have the guy who purchased the first DIs in here. Didn't you write that yours are serialized 1 & 2?

Perhaps you're right. I need patience. Only patience is a virtue that takes too long to cultivate. :-)

Yep, serial numbers 1&2. Jeffery333 might have serial numbers 1&2 Ulfberhts. 

Youre preaching to the choir as patience isn't a virtue I possess. Just like I can resist anything except temptation :)

If it helps, many here are chomping at the bit for you guys to get your mini Ulfberhts. Inquiring minds need to know how they sound! I would love to compare the Ulfberhts, mini Ulfberhts, DI SE's and DI's. I'm assuming they finish in that order but it would be interesting to hear the comparative differences.

Got the center channel in today. On Eric’s recommendation I got the three tweeter instead of the 7. It looks small vs my B&W HTM1 it’s replacing. Definitely looks small vs the DIs! But it’s the same driver set that’s producing all the mids and highs in the DIs, so hopefully it will get the job done. I haven’t listened to it yet since it was delivered while the Texan’s game was on. Listening/break-in tomorrow.
I’ve actually been thinking a single Enzo 2.7 would make an excellent floor standing center. I wonder if Eric would sell just one of them if this doesn’t work well.

If you've got the money, Bullitt, he's got the time.

Actually I think you're wrong on both counts there!
