anybody have the Impact Monitors?
how are they?
how are they?
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.

Heads Up on an Excellent cable...if you can use HDMI I have 3 of these . They sound fantastic with the DI. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9105h-purist-audio-design-hdmi-lr-hdmi-cable-5ft-1-5m-digital?r... |
totalwex,I use to DI's with a pair of Hsu sealed subs to very good effect. I have not heard the monitors but I can tell you that you will get better bottom octave coverage using the subs. If the monitor option allows you to better optimize speaker placement (i.e. to give them breathing room) that is what I would do. If you could optimally place either speaker, the DI's alone would keep many happy (but in my room drop off rapidly below 30hz). |
