Tyler acoustics questions

I am zeroing in on either the Tylo monitor or the Linbrook sigs & would like to know what folks found to be the dfference in the midrange.I have a sub but if I bought the Taylos (save a thousand) what would you have to statr your sub at to run in parallel i.e I would use the preout on my RA Tempest II. I prefer to set my sub for music set at the lowest 50 Hz which seems to match it best with the quicker 6-7 inch driver with most monitor speakers .Do the Taylos do a honest 50 Hz in which case it is no doubt the better choice especially since my tube amp produces way more watts into 8 ohms than the 4 ohm sigs.(probably a better match)

The other issue is the tweeter .I see most folks lprefer the millenium a little more however I am looking for the smoothest one in the upper mids with the best rendering of siblance. My sense is the Scanspeak may be a little smoother & less peaky with a tad less presence in this area.Comments?

Thanks

Bill

I agree with Audiofeil, I have heard tons of speakers, and ones with the top tweets from many brands, and they all can let the "SSS" word out.. I have heard pairs that exhibit this behavior, and a quick amp or cable change can all of a sudden sound totally different.. Many times its the recording or the source, but if it is every single recording than you will want to look into a DAC or a Cartridge, I have had Cartridge issues that Amplify this as well as certain CD players, and others that are perfect balance.

Again you could take one of the ruffest sounding tweeters around and possibly not get a ton of siblance out of it if your front end feeding them are not amplifying it in the first place.
