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,
I am open-minded, and I would love for you to share the sound improvement after your mods.  If you don't want to share it here, I understand, I can send you a PM.  What I am gathering here from some folks is that they only want hear praises for the DIs, nothing else.

Bill (grannyring),
I owe you a debt for giving great advice regarding building my system and selling gear. Thanks for the great feedback on the DI’s. I believe we hear things the same way. I’m glad to hear that you’re willing to hang on to the DI’s and experiment because you hear potential there. Your contributions will be sorely missed and it’s understandable why you would want to cut back on the unnecessary drama. We should recognize that we all have different tastes, rooms, goals and signal chains, etc. Many, many variables. As readers, we should be able to pick out the value of each post and not scrutinize what doesn’t match our own experience specifically. Thanks Bill!

aniwolfe,
Professional Reviewer so what? Do I have to believe anyone who claim to be Jesus just because he carries a bible and speak from it?

Hey muzikmann,

Thanks for the advice to listen to some great music, I am already!

I don't know what your basing your perception on that I'm upset, but that's OK.  If you mean I find statements that I disagree with somewhat annoying, including being accused of not telling the truth that's correct.

As I told Eric this morning regarding nay-sayers towards him and his speakers, which is a very tiny % of the members posting here:
