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.

@corelli, thank you for offering that info, glad to know all the earlier talk of tubes was just the direction of convo rather than necessary for some type of influence the speakers needed.


We are not trying to control each other's buying behavior.

I'm clearly now on Team Moab. Super percussive speaker, but not bloaty. Rarified midrange and layers.  

 Sometimes you get something that is truly breathtaking, and why not "give it away"?

Right. I live for the comments from people who are genuinely enthusiastic and excited. Only thing better is when they are emotionally captivated. Who wants the component that makes people go, "Meh"?

perhaps i missed it but what is the difference between the regular and SE versions?

@gwng8 Eric is famous for his lack of detail on the website, upgraded drivers.  That's about it!  Reach out to him, give him a call, it's the only way to get answers.  Never understood that, he wouldn't be so overloaded with emails and phone calls if he just explained himself a bit on the website.

I have regular ole DI's, I posted my review of them on here a few months back.  They are great speakers.

i have reached out, waiting for a response....i imagine he is very busy.  But yes some more details on the website would certainly go a long way with respect to the decision making process.
