Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors

Bartokfan: Just to illustrate the confusion Ty's speaker nomenclature causes, here are a few exerpts from another A'gon thread:

"If you are referring to the Linbrook floorstanders that have the one mid/bass driver and a tweeter in each enclosure (ie, these are not the Linbrook System speakers)..."

"You will get a tad more bass with the Linbrook floorstanders...That said, the Tyler 7Us, or the Linbrook Signature Monitors would indeed be a step up over the Taylo Reference Monitors."

"Could you clarify which model of Linbrook floorstander you are talking about? I have the Linbrook Signature system, one piece per side, but I think you may be talking about the rhw new Linbrook System two which has one tweeter, one midrange and one woofer. ???"

"The Signature System II is a major step up from the Taylo Reference Monitors (sorry, I thought you were only interested in the Linbrook Floorstanding Reference Monitor)..."

"I don't own the "II" (I have the regular Linbrook System "I" if you will)"

A good speaker is a good speaker, but the nomenclature is amusing or maddening depending on how you are involved. :)

Aktchi "maddening" hehe...yes it has been difficult for this 50 yr old brain to keep all the Sigs, Systems, ONE, TWO's all in proper order, and making sure everyone is on the same apge. But as you point out there is no lab that offers the extent of moels as does Ty, At the top of his line you've got those MONSTROUS Towers with a 10 inch at the top and one at the bottom of the cabinet!!! + A few other Towers to boot. Then the baby of the seas' family ty has that newest mini monitor with the 5 inch midwoofer/tweeter. And everything in between. Come one come all. No other lab worldwide comes even close. Thus in someways you can say Tyler ofers the world's best speaker line, not only models but also as I consider the seas the finest deriver in the world. Just my opinion "of course".
But as you say names do not matter its the end redsult we are all after, : Does it deliver? Is the question. According to Sallie , yes indeed the Systems 2 does. If it a good idea that Ty renames his models, all for the sake of convience? I guess not really , what we need to do is make sure we are on the same page on what model we are talking. So I suggest write down all his models on a reference card and make short notes. Exaplme, Taylo7U=MTM T (T= tower) Taylo REFERENCE 3's = W26/W18/T25 ( a model no one talks about) Linbrook Systems 2 = W22/W18/T25 Linbrook SIGNATURE SYSTEM = MTM/Bass Module.
Sure it will take alittle work from us, but after a month, you'll have the models locked into memory.
btw there are a few issues i have with Sallie's review. For some odd reason she brings up another speaker as reference. But says its possibly her first choice over the SYS2. seems to me its a bit disingenuious to make these accurate comments on the Tyler's which after reading you could translate "it just don't get much better than this", yet she prefers the "other reference speaker" I just don't get it. Which is why I avoid these "audio reviews".
There si an article in the Absolute Sound, "Can an audio system sound real?" Which I will not read, as I know the answer already and know of a sytem that will deliver the goods. Mine at present does just fine. I'm comparing my setup to the dozens of speakers/systems I've heard over the past 30 yrs.
The System2 vs Thor will have to wait, I expect the System 2 to come out as my fav especially for classical music, but all other genres as well. The System 2 seems to be the ideal speaker, each driver is doing what it is suppose to do.

Make it a point to stop off and pick up a copy of Absolute Sound, go ahead its only $8, so we are all on the same page.
That review should put to rest any objections that the Tyler/Seas is something to be heard.

GO FIGURE Zero Tyler's on the used market. All buyers keep their speakers. . I guess no one is figuring that out. IOW the # of used speakers on the used market let you know how well to how c**py they are. Tyler is the only lab with zero, which tells me it is the best. Now how many here would figure that out? See i like to use my head. btw Sallie's "I slightly prefer the Spendor" sounds so much like absolute sounds's games they play ,seems clearly to me playing the pied piper to Spendor to get spendor to ad with AS. btw plenty os spendors on the uded market.

Have another Hurricane.
