Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts?


Since I keep reading and hearing that audiophiles have replaced their 30K speakers with the Tekton Double Impacts, I started this thread to see what speakers and why they were replaced.  I really want to know who did this and why.  Personally, I do not believe anyone would give up 30K speakers for 3K speakers, but what do I know anyways?

There's no one speaker to rule them all? My SE's are still precious to me :)

olesno, the SE's take quite a while to fully break in so you're in for even better listening sessions in the future. Enjoy.

I agree with waltersalas and grannyring......synergy with the SE's ( and most other speakers ) is so important. While I've found the SE's to be the most real sounding speakers I've ever owned, I respect the opinions of those that have tried them and didn't like them. I pay no attention to those that denounce them without having heard them. 
Thanks teajay, pretty impressive comparison to speakers costing many times more in the review. I've never heard Wilsons but the Tektons seem to get compared to them often. 

Like many others here I upgraded from the DI's to the SE's and couldn't be happier. When I purchased the DI's I owned the Legacy Focus SE's. The Legacys are excellent speakers and I figured they'd be a mainstay in my two channel system with the DI's going into a theater system. After listening to both speakers off and on for two weeks it quickly became apparent that I much preferred to DI's. I never expected that! The SE's take things to yet another level. As david_ten stated, the SE's are more refined but there is a certain liveliness the DI's possess that that the SE's don't quite match......an exuberant youthful vigor the more mature and refined SE's look down their nose at.
