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.

Don't have room for the DI's and curious if anyone's heard the Electrons

Not that I'm aware of but there is a couple of guys that have them ordered and expecting them within 2 weeks.

Trani - I have not, but I believe there are others on this list that have. I do know that Eric told me that his speakers are all voiced the same, so to some extent they will all have that "Tekton" sound. Also, not sure what your budget is but the mini Ulf is smaller than the DI, yet higher end. However, be aware that they are not completed as of yet and they may take a while to get. Eric addressed in an earlier post what speakers are able to go out the door quickly. He is building and shipping speakers daily but the speaker you buy and finish you get makes a difference. Just go with whatever makes sense for you.

Thanks for the replies . My comment about this thread being among 6 people or so ,was really about lately in the thread.
I had made 2 or 3 posts about my DI and the equipment and , it just seemed to me that everyone ignored them and kept on talking about the things that the few seemed to be talking about .
No hard feelings . It is just that when i got Zero response is when i felt it was a conversation only among the few .
Thanks again

I am curious if you feel your power is overkill? Is the extra power a positive thing with the DI speaker? What are you using for a preamp and source? Thanks.
