Just received the Double Impacts (upgraded version)
Current system:
Canary Audio C630 Tube Preamp
Canary Audio CA-301AE 23 watt push/pull 300B tube amp
B&W 683 (previous version, not S2)
Pro-Ject debut carbon
Jolida JD9 II (with upgrades caps) phono pre
Kimber cable standard speaker wire
When the DI’s arrived, I already had an idea of the impact they were probably going to make (no pun). I felt the Sensitivity rating of 98db would play well with the extremely pure sound of the Canary 300B.
I have read countless posts about the DI’s and given more thought and consideration of all the facts to make a purchase that I thought was “as informed as possible” and a great fit for my system.
I have only logged about 45 minutes of listening and have been completely blown away. The detail that these speakers introduce, coupled with the imaging and liquid midrange is better than I imagined by a wide margin. The decibals I gain in sensitivity along with the “aliveness” and “organic” sound they put out was simply amazing.
The bass comparison versus the B&W’s is not even fair. DI’s Full “floor shaking” bass that is always in control and never bloated.
I’ll sum this up and keep it short, spare you the tracks I listened to, save “Strangest Thing” by War on Drugs (ya’ll really need to tune in to that band) if you don’t know them. The entire album is solid.
Feel like I stole a speaker worth three times the price.
I’ll leave it at that given the continuous posts on here.
Beyond blown away....really thankful for an outlet like Audiogon of collaboration to educate fellow audioheads and gather research.
