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.

Well, there’s no doubt that better wire, parts, etc., would help out the DIs.

@audioman  But where are you getting the distortion figures @3% for the DIs, from the mids up?

I  have worked in audio for over 30 years ,and just from experience 
for example a Hiqiphon tweeter less then .5 % per per on average 
$260a pr . The wavecore not even close 2-3% and not even guaranteed X7  drivers a potential for many anamolies. Very simple math. These revelator tweeters,seas millennium, Accuton ceramic 
are all in the 1%  range .wave Core is a $40tweeter, not $150
you are not going to see hand applied coatings and measurements 
per matched pair . Taiwan or not . This is where you get what you pay for better,everything, materials as well as castings on the frame .this is why YG acoustics,Magic, even Wilson have a dedicated line hand built for them ,but at a cost . That is where 
the 3-4 % potentially comes in ,and for the Bass 3X that.

In other words, he is just guessing and has no measurements to go by....
