Tekton Double Impacts

The contact at Audio Solutions is Victor.  Sorry, it's been about 4 years.  Ask Victor about his experience with my Enzos. (317) 255-4434 Audio Solutions

Racer12b,
you're extremely late to the party; there is almost unanimous consent on here by both respected reviewer Teajay and others, actual multiple purchaser of Tekton DI who vouch for the DI. And, what does your purchase of Enzo speakers have to do with the current model DI? Nothing is the answer.

I am truly sorry for you if your tale is true; but it really has nothing to do with the Double Impacts or Ulfs. And yes, you have the right to voice an opinion from your experience. Yet it seems misplaced here and should be located in a thread discussing the Enzo.

I am a former professional musician from a family of musicians, some very well known. My wife is a classical guitarist. I have owned Tekton products from a single driver Fostex monitor, Mini-Lore, Lore. They are all excellent sounding buys for their category of dollars performing well above their cost. None were muddled.

I currently own a bunch of excellent performing speakers, DeVore 0/96, Harbeth SHL5, and some pretty good ancillary equipment such as Leben CS600, Cary 280v, SLP98, LTA MZ2s, etc., etc., and have had much good equipment in my systems over the past 50 years. I believe my hearing is excellent. What was your amplifier and ancillary equipment with Enzo? 

To sum up, this is a thread about the Double Impact, not Enzo. Everyone has a right to voice an opinion; but I will qualify that by saying your comments are misplaced in this thread. Best, mikirob

P.S. It is also a little weird that you want people to contact a dealer in Indiana to validate your claim. No one finds that request strange?

I'm confused as to why someone would come on to a forum to complain about different speakers purchased four years ago.  It's like complaining about a 20 year old Porsche 924 on a Porsche forum thread discussing the current 911's.   Not relevant.

evolvist,
"Yeah, Kenny, you've actually opened these boxes up. How was the design on the insides"

The Di cabinets are well made at their price point IMO and they do have a cross brace in the area of each woofer which also supports the back end of each woofers magnet.The upper section has a sealed compartment which houses the mids and tweeters and this compartment is the height and internal width of those drivers and is 8 inches in depth.The woofers enjoy the majority of the internal volume and I think both key items are the other reasons why this speaker sounds so darn good.
The crossover for the woofers is mounted to the bottom brace and the crossover for the upper drivers is mounted vertically on the wall of the sealed compartment.

The cabinet just has a small amount of regular fiberglass insulation as the damping material and even though I personally don't see a problem with that there may be some room for improvement.

Offcourse we all need to remember that this wonderful sounding speaker only cost a measly 3k and the majority of the cost is in the drivers which equal 1/3 or slightly more overall cost and also the parts cost in the upgraded crossovers aren't cheap either.Eric uses decent wire throughout and that costs money to.

Kenny.
