Tekton Double Impacts

Granny ring  I like the fact you have experience with possibilities 
With upgrades and not sugar coating the truth. Putting things in perspective the DI,are great for the money. The New $6500
SE version has a better driver complement ,and decent crossover parts but nothing Special Erik gets mad when asked ,because 
Doesnot put much $$ into the crossover ,and average and I am sure the average parts are ok clarity caps,  but which ones ? 
Personally if you are buying them there should be top wiring options ,and at least a reference capacitor, cross over package 
For I can tell you without reservation the crossover being the heart 
Of a speaker ,and please remember with all these drivers decent 
Wave core, and  better woofers they are 2-3% distortion,  compared with top scan speaker ,seas, Accuton, they are not as refined no matter how good the design .They are a very good speaker and great deal.I give credit where do,But do not compare with a marten,
Wilson YG,Magico these are in another league - Period precision 
Instruments this is why they cost big bucks the drivers many times more expensive and Accurate under 1% ,the cabinets are totally inert. The adverts are a bit over the top. I am just being honest 
I heard the latest Wilson Alexx 2 weeks ago .$110k but Fantastic.
If I had the money I would buy them. Having owned a Hifi store in the past hand built precision audio  has its place ,just as very expensive cars. The Double impacts,SE and flagship are all very 
Good to excellent and several times over in $$ value. This is honest and the truth .I have had systems approaching 6 figures..
Top systems are just a bit better at everything and more refined 
I will leave it at that if you like the Double impact buy em great deal .
 

facten,
I posted something from kdude66 not my comments.

Wow, this thread has really seen some activities for the past couple of days. I missed some "action" here. But it was an interesting read with @shardone being called a troll and @grannyring and @teajay not agreeing, while the DI supporters calling the opinions of some folks as "does not make sense".
Guys, relax, this is a hobby - not a religion. I know that hobbies are greater than religion. But don't take it to an extent that you make this thread and forum a boring place. I was initially skeptical at first (see my posts many moons ago), since I saw only new posters posting on this thread and the same folks posting over and over again. But it looks like Eric has taken efforts to create a great loudspeaker for the audiophile community and has got one of the biggest following, as much as I can remember being on Audiogon since 2005. It reminded me of how much fanatically I supported the Promitheus TVC once I experienced it. The reason I write today is to share how "our" experience are our own and how we all try to defend it. I have been searching for loudspeakers for the past 2 years. I visited AXPONA 2015 and 2017 and have finally found my loudspeakers. In this mission I figured out one thing - when we audition a loudspeaker do we really audition the loudspeaker or do we judge our listening preferences? I strongly believe that we unconsciously are judging our preferences. No loudspeaker is good or bad. It all depends on us. There are hundreds of successful loudspeaker designers and millions of listeners. If a loudspeaker designer's speakers were bad, how the hell do these companies thrive for so many years? Think about it. I listened to the $10k Sony loudspeaker at AXPONA 2015 and was amazed by the music it made. But when I heard it 2 months back at a dealer, the same (model, not pair) speakers sounded lifeless and dull. So what happened? The gear was different, the room was different, etc.
One thing I will say - no loudspeaker in this world is perfect. So if you trumpeted about it being so great, be prepared for the fact that someone who tried the same one might not like it. Just because Mr. X, Mr. Y and Mr. Z did not find the speaker to be as great as Mr. A, Mr. B and Mr. C found it to be, does not mean that loudspeaker is no good. Their choices differ. No need for calling names or dissing their opinions. On my part, I did reach out to the Chicago dealer to audition the DI loudspeaker. But the timing did not work out. At the same time, I roughly built a cardboard model of the DI to see how it would look in my room, and found out that it would be too imposing. So I gave up on that idea.So, yes, I have never heard the DIs. Hence cannot comment on the sound. But @grannyring has given us a straight forward review of the DIs he compared with his loudspeakers. I am surprised that he and @charles1dad liked the DIs so much, considering their audio journey and the gear they sport, that I think the DIs must be something special. @teajay also posted his honest opinion and compared other pricey loudspeakers and found the Tektons better. Nothing wrong with that either, since it is his preference. But the Tekton loudspeakers are made in the US of A. The people who design them and work in the factory that makes them also live in the US of A. So $1 in any part of the USA has the same value. They have to make a living and bring us better products in the future. So $3k loudspeaker will certainly have some compromises. Lets not expect miracles for $3k and hope that these are the most perfect loudspeakers. If these were to be made by some "named brands", I am thinking they would cost > $10k, and I would not buy them for that price or size.
Sorry about the philosophical lecture, but I think I had to share my opinion. As a side note, not a single post was made on 10-01-2017. THAT was the day all the DI owners were thoroughly enjoying their music!

@milpai— thanks for all that.  My favorite part was the last line “As a side note, not a single post was made on 10-01-2017. THAT was the day all the DI owners were thoroughly enjoying their music!”  Haha. Sometimes we forget it should be about the music!!

Milpai maybe some are tweaking or slightly modifying them, or just texting other audiophile friend, to tell them how good are the DI, or searching for tube amps.
