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.

Sbayne +1. (Scott) thanks again....I will try to update my system pic, since your impact are sitting on your sub, is there a trace of distortion?
@jayctoy - I'll respond over on the Impact Monitor thread just to keep this Double Impact thread on point.  Thanks
Sbayne,
Regarding ozzy moving on away from the Tektons. Maybe so but no matter what speaker he chooses down the road he’ll have to hear them in his system. He needs to determine whether or not a given speaker is a match for his amplifier and system overall. Iwill admit it seems a bit strange given his emails, calls and posts on this thread he has gotten so little in response.

Charles - I shouldn’t have been so short in my post.

My thinking is Ozzy is well known and respected on these boards. He wants the manufacturer to respond to his inquires, specifically show him the impedance curve. Many have told him and believe (including yourself) his amps would be a fine pairing with the DIs but he wants to confirm it himself by seeing the data or at least talking to Eric about it. That hasn’t happened - which I agree should.

Its been suggested he take the 60 day home audition but Ozzy indicated the speakers are too big and heavy for him to do that.

Ozzy also indicated he doesn’t want to take a chance on a $3,000 speaker without getting this info.

So, I was just trying to say it seems like the DIs aren’t for him. I’m not criticizing his posts it just seems logical too move on.

Scott,
I didn't infer that your comments were critical of Ozzy's post at all. Even if he gets the impeadanc curve information he seeks he'd still need to actually hear this speaker with his Atma-sphere amplifiers.  My point to him is There's an abundance of posts here that strongly indicate the DI  has easy load characteristics. I thought this would provide some degree encouragement and optimism.
