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 believe the width of the mini-Ulfs is around 10.5 inches. They will be slightly taller than the regular Ulfs. Price is $7500. That is all I know.

Well, you just ruined my "Bullitt has a crane... how come I can’t have one" argument. I do have a 4 post lift in my garage, so it's only fair that my crane would have two more posts than yours would. :-)

I think I see one of my new speakers on Erics website. I needed a thin pair of side speakers because of where the wall and chairs are. Eric mentioned a 4" thin DI speaker. He now has them on his site. He is calling them the DI in wall speakers. I hope they sound good. They look good!

Hi @iamasif  
It depends on how good your sub is.  It sounds to me like you have a good one if your preset 2 is working well.  Preset 2 is sending more of the lowest frequencies to the subwoofer.  50hz is reasonable although the DI's should be strong down to 30 hz or so.  I would only suggest trying preset 2 with a 40 hz or even 35hz crossover on the DI's and seeing if that's an improvement.

Oh, and let me add that the highlight of my listening experience was Hendrix's "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)." Hendrix's guitar was crisp and taunt, batting back and forth between both speakers, his voice so clean in the middle. It was amazing.
