@david_ten-Yes, I was using the Oppo to feed the XP-20. Prior to the Oppo, I had an old(er) Copland 288 CD/SACD transport.
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've had both with my D.I.'s being I believe the most current version. I would describe the 2 models performance as very similar with the D.I.s having a deeper bass response, although I doubt most would deem the Electrons to be lacking in that department. The D.I.'s also IMO are slightly smoother responding with a shade more depth. However, those features could just be the most recent modification that have been added to the design. I sure liked the weight of the Electrons a lot better. LP |
Anyone in Southern California have Electrons or Double Impacts? Lunch and beers are on me if I can get a quick demo of these monster speakers. Drop me a line at [email protected] - cheers! |
