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.

@xenophon  +1 on your "piping  up" as you put it! Great to have you on board with the DIs and also contributing here. Keep up posted on developments. BTW, what are the amplification components you are "lusting after?"

@jcarcopo  Congratulations on the Mini-Ulfs. REALLY looking forward to your impressions once they have settled into your system. The Diavolo's 13 Watts should be more than enough, and when they aren't you've got the perfect replacements! All the best with settling the refund.

@jcarcopo,
Yes, I posted pics from the Tekton FB page. They weren't my DIs but I was posting the paint color I had ordered. Enjoy. Looking forward to your impression of the mini ulfs.

@xenophon  Glad you are so happy with your DI's and hope you keep contributing to the thread!  It's fun to hear from members that have read this thread for many months finally take the plunge.

@jcarcopo   I will be curious to hear your impressions.  Would also like to know what drivers are employed in this design.  Look forward to hearing from you.

@david_ten there are many I’ve been lusting after but I’ve been paying particular attention to the experiences of the members of this thread as I’ve come to trust them. The Lyngdorf gets a lot of love and I’m sure it would be a smart choice however I’ve wanted to go tube for a very long time. Linear Tube Audio also gets a lot of love but last night I pulled the trigger on Aric Audio’s Mother Load preamp. After this I will be saving up for new power amp. Aric’s new Push Pull looks very intriguing and I can’t wait to learn more about it after it is released.
