I think @mofojo also had Odyssey.
Also, didn't someone have trouble with Odyssey or am I thinking of another brand?

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.

I am using "Nightmares On Wax" as the Station name . I am getting a lot of Cool stuff this way . BTW .. I am using a Roku Ultra with HDMI out to the 4K HDR capable HDMI in of the Freaking Awesome Oppo -UDP-203. The Oppo has 2 HDMI ouputs . #1HDMI out is Audio Only (I am sending it to an HDMI Input on My McIntosh MX151) the Other 4K HDR . #2 HDMI output is going to My Sony 70 inch 4K TV. It is Unreal how good the sound is ... Better than my JRiver into the Mx151 , with HDMI also. All of my HDMI cables are all Purist Audio Design... except one . The one HDMI cable that goes from The Roku out to the Oppo-203 in , is the Wireworld HDMI Starlight 6. I Know this is a lot to Digest, But I have never heard anything sound this good. Amps are McIntosh MC30s (restored by Yves Beauvais at Vintage Vacuum Audio) Pre-Amp is McIntosh MX151 (with Lyngdorf Room Correction) Interconnects are the AWESOME Purist Audio Design- Dominus-Fluid . Power Cable for the MX151 is Purist Audio Dominus -Fluid Speakers are the Tekton Double Impact. Speaker cables are The Sonoran Desert Plateau by Star Sound Technologies Speakers are the Tekton Double Impact.. The speakers are also sitting on the Sistrum Apprentice Platforms . I am sorry about ranting and raving , BUT, I have never heard a system sound this GOOD. Very Natural Unforced Sound with KILLER BASS , imaging..etc . IT HAS IT ALL. I cannot believe it myself. For the first time in Many many years , I am completely satisfied with this setup |
