the difference between tekton pendragon and double impact
Hi scarbpaul12,The short answer is YES.  Eric's new break through design used in the DI's is a qualitative shift from what you hear in your Pendragons.  I have reviewed the DI's, ULF's, and Impact monitors and they all received five stars because ...

Tekton Double Impacts
Hi mofojo,As you know everything is influenced by "the law of diminishing returns", including our hobby.  However, the SE's version of the DI's takes this great speaker to a higher degree of finesse and qualitatively does everything better then th...
