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.

Hey aniwolfe,

In my role as a professional reviewer I have had in-house for review numerous D amplifiers, way before/after the DI's/Ulf's that I returned to the company because I would have written less then a positive review on their product.  It is my position that if my review is going to be negative that I inform the company and give them the choice to go forward or withdraw their product for review.  Yes, I have had reviews that are less then stellar regarding the performance of certain pieces of gear, but if I can't even give one star in the rating system, I think its unkind/damaging to the designer/builder not to have a chance to withdraw their product.

Almost all the D amplifiers that I have had in-house for review were not solicited by me to begin with, but I was asked by the company if I was interested in reviewing their piece. So, the only public statements that I have made about D amplifiers has been on this thread in general terms, not being highly critical of any specific brand or model. 


To me, push-pull amps suck in general, Class D are less sucky than most push-pull, and certain SET amps are better than everything. It’s really quite simple too me based on my own bias and what I want to hear.

I’m not afraid to admit that I’m very curious about the Lyngdorf as I like to employ room/speaker correction in the form of various DAW software and vst plugins currently. Does anyone else here like ambiophonics or have messed with it? I’ve been using Electrovoice’s Ambiophonics vst plug-in through Reaper DAW software, along with several other vst plugins to digitally eq the sound, and having a load of fun listening to my recordings without stereo crosstalk. It brings so much more enjoyment listening to my recordings now and it’s more of an upgrade than anything else I could have  wasted $10k on.

Just like the Double Impacts the Lyngdorf is not going to appeal to everyone. Heck I bought mine used from a Reviewer that used it with the Pendragons. He sold it because he thought it sounded harsh at high volumes. I am glad he did :)
