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 use the 2170 with my Electrons and feel it works great. In my opinion as great as the Tekton Electrons speakers are, I feel the 2170 is the most important part to my system.

@aniwolfe Yeah, I have high hopes. This better be my last upgrade for 2018.

Anyone in the Cleveland oh area have the DI's or the Electrons and willing to let someone listen to, I am looking to upgrade from a pair of Paradigm studio 80v2 and would like a little more bass for music ( don't like using the sub) wondering if the Electrons would do it DI's I haven't written off but there a little big for my space

Hi jcarcopo,
As with Chris (waltersalas) I appreciate you taste and listening impressions.  I look forward to your opinion of the popular and highly praised  Lyngdorf. I've had the feeling that at some point you were going give it a try.

I just found out a week or so ago that the Encores (aka mini ulfs) were released. 

I had DIs on loan from Tekton until they were released so that I can upgrade. 

Now, I'm just waiting for Tekton to get back to me about shipping the DIs back and upgrading to the Encores. 

I really hope they live up to the hype, as it's been over a year. 

Special shout out to Tekton for loaning me upgraded DIs for so long.
