An Objective Review of the Tekton Double Impact Speakers


128x128philbarone

I own the Double Impacts.  I had wanted Von Schweikert Endeavor MK II’s.  Price was my deciding factor.

Do I like the Double Imlacts?  Yes!

Are they the best speaker out there? No,

But for 3,000 dollars, they are amazing in my opinion.

Hate them or love them, that is your choice.  But for me, it was money well spent.

They are running through an Audible Illusions Modulus 3B preamp, custom tube mono blocks that were hand built by a friend, and a Teac NT-505 streamer.

I’ve been lucky enough to be able to listen to very expensive systems in excess of several hundreds of thousands of dollars.  Is my set up as good? No!  But it gets 90% there for a whole lot less dollars.

 

I bought a pair of Tekton Design Double Impact Special Edition. I have had them for 1 week so really not broken in at all. Overall I have been impressed with the sound given the cost. I can’t justify spending $10K -$30K or more for speakers... so for a full range solution I think they sound even better than my Vandersteen 2CE with Rythmik subs but I will delay final judgement till after a month of play...

I ended up with a pair of rebuild Proac Tesponse 3’s for less money that smoked the Tektons. 

People are free to buy what they like. It's freedom. Not sure what the problem is? The OP got what he liked..yes? And if it does not like what he has now, he can sell those speakers and buy something else which is what the majority of people here at AG do?!?!

smoked the Tektons. 

When I see phrases like this, or "blows away", I just shake my head and move on. Reads like something a 15 yr old would write. But, to each his own........
