Re: Tekton Double Impact
Hi John,
I was going to post a thread asking the same thing. There are threads on fire on Audiogon and Audiocircle, I think. Seems like they have quite the following. No nonsense pricing and solid build quality seems like a great recipe. I am a little curious myself.Fleetwood Deville by Oswald Mills Audio, Vienna Acoustics Haydn Jubilee, Wharfedale Linton w/ stands, Klipsch RB-75, Klipsch RP-160M.
Job INTegrated. Luxman L-595aSE
NAD C 658 streamer.
First Watt SIT-3, Job 250 Monos, NuForce STA200, AkitikA GT-102 amp, ASL Wave monos, Dennis Had 45 monos. Absolute Audio Labs PCF 25 amp (improved First Watt F7 super clone)
Topping D90, RME Audio ADI-2 DAC FS, ModWright Ultimate Sony XA-5400ES.
Burmester 948, McIntosh MCLK12, Kimber Kable, Siltech, Cardas, Avanti Audio cables.

Re: Tekton Double Impact
I looked at Tekton before purchasing my Spatials and was very interested in their offerings but in the end the open baffle option really hit home. These new models were not around when I was looking and they are quite interesting. The multiple tweeter setup is interesting and not something anyone else is doing, it would be nice to hear what the designer was thinking with that many tweeters.

Re: Tekton Double Impact
To me buying from Tekton is kind of a risky proposition if re-sale is of any concern. Eric seems to come up with new or "upgraded" models on an almost weekly basis. From all the chatter I have read over the last year their primary goal seems to be playing loud. Biggest following I have seen is on AK.
From a designer standpoint I would much rather bet my money on Clayton. Waiting on info now on the possible upgrade paths on the M3 Turbo S.Main - JVC QL-Y7/Denon DL-301 Mk II, Gold Note PH-10, Jays CDT3 Mk3 , Auralic Aries G2.2, Holo May KTE, Supratek Cabernet, Kinki Studio EX-B7 monoblocks, Verity Audio Otello, (2) Rythmik F12SE, Audio Envy IC, SC & PC's, Triode Wire Lab PC's, Inakustik USB and I2S, (2) Puritan Audio Labs PSM-156 with Groundmaster City, Timbernation rack
Family Room - Oppo UDP-203, Auralic Aries, Aqua La Voce S3, Kinki Studio EX-M1+, Nola KO, (2) Rythmik F-12G, Wireworld SC & IC's, Neotech PC's, SurgeX SA-1810
Greenville, SC- Jays CDT2 Mk 3, Auralic Aries G1, Holo Spring 3 KTE, Supratek Chardonnay, Odyssey Audio Kismet Reference, Rosso Fiorentino Volterra 2, (2) RSL Speedwoofers, iFi Audio Power Station, Wireworld IC's, Inakustik USB and I2s, Triode Wire Lab SC, Triode Wire Lab PC's, Furutech NCF Clear Line, Timbernation rack.

Re: Tekton Double Impact
So many tweeters ... talk about HUGE lobbing effect. I would like to see their off-axis response.

Does anyone have experience with these new cables yet? In particular, I am curious how the Theta line compares to the Venom-X. Thanks in advance.
