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.

 corelli thanks, can I ask where abouts are the ports located? Just thinking how the bass will inneract with the angled wall behind them.

nitrobob I envy you, I ordered mine last tuesday around noon and also got the upgrades and grills. The only difference is mine are a costom color so I'm sure mine will take longer.

bullitt, it must be painful looking at those boxes without being able to move them until tonight. Looking forward to hearing you impressions of those beasts. Steve McQueen would be proud of such speakers!
Ulfs are in the garage and they can't get out! They are indeed going into "Bullitt Theater". Large Bullitt poster in there too. My daughter actually found a french one just to be different.
I still have my DIs too. Eric actually wanted me to do a comparison before I sent the DIs back to him. I need to get some hours on the Ulfs first though. Such drudgery! But some sacrifices must be suffered.

Did you get the Shelby GT paint job for your Ulfbehrts, bullitt? That would actually look sweet. Wasn't the Bullitt car white with blue racing stripes? I need to watch that movie again, it's been forever since I last saw it. 

Bet you never thought you'd have speakers that made your DI's look puny!
