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.

@danoroo
maybe an easier answer to your problem would be to pull the crossover and replace some of those nasty caps!  Suspect it might be a fun and easier project than what Bill did with his DI's.

I agree with @corelli. Eric’s tweeter array responds really well to cap upgrades. Add some correctly spec’d and installed Jupiter or Duelund caps to the crossover and you will be shocked by the excellent music you get. And no doubt, Bill really knows his stuff.

@rubytuesday  CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase of the Double Impact SEs!!!

Looking forward to hearing what you choose for amplification. And of course how the pairing works with the SEs.
