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   Thanks for your favorites "BMW Phoenix Green, a bright metallic M3 color. Not for the faint of heart! The gloss Porsche Gray is very classy looking.....or the BMW Mineral Gray."

@vitop  Thanks for your suggestion on " Ferrari color for me, there is a gloss griggio (grey) color that I saw that I really liked"

@treebeard1  Thanks for you suggestion and the link to the photo  "There is a post on the Tekton FB page of a DI in a color called spanish tile.  The nicest I have seen yet."

@evolvist  Thanks for the versatile White and Lighting scheme suggestion! : )  I know my wife will be thrilled with a white/off white color scheme.

I'll be making a trip to see paint samples tomorrow and I will check out all of your recommendations.

Other paint color suggestions? ...Thanks.

imswjm,

Since you are asking about Audio Archon's green cord,I can tell you I bought a 2m one and replaced a much more expensive Triode labs cord.This was the only change to my system that day and within 15 secs of listening I could hear the difference in lwr noise and more music without a doubt and easily 1/3 of the cost.The 2 m green cord was $360.00 including shipping.I have a shorter blue cord going to my preamp's pwr supply and it was the same story,lwr noise equals more music.

I consider Mike's pwr cords to be very well made and a extremely good value.

Does anybody want to buy a slightly used one owner triode labs pwr cord.😃

Kenny.

I consider any time I spend $250 on a power cord to be disruptive! :-)

Thanks David. There is no right or wrong. Just interest in what the criteria was that won the day for the SEs

David got the SEs because he figured his wife wouldn’t notice the difference. I mean, it’s not like she doesn’t pass these huge monoliths everyday, thinking to herself, "These are the best things that have happened to our relationship."
