Review: Tyler Acoustics Taylo Ref Monitor

Category: Speakers

After owning probably 12 pairs of high end speakers during this crazy hobby of mine, I am finally happy. I first heard these speakers at a good friends home and impressed imediately with the timber and accuracy they were capable of. I purchased a pair the next day and have been more than pleased.

These monitors not only offer solid imaging but are dynamic and project a HUGE soundstage. The driver compliment in this monitor is hard to beat at this pricepoint.(Seas and Scanspeak) The fit and finish is also excellent on the cabinets. You can even choose different internal wiring options and Binding Posts. (The Cardas work very well)

These speakers are truly a bargain at what Ty sells them for. I kind of feel like I got the better end of the deal in this purchase. They offer a musical liquidity that rivals speakers in the 15k and up category. In my dedicated listening room, the bass extension is deep and tight. For once, I am completely happy and no longer and travleing the upgrade path. I am just buying more music.

Its all system dependent. I used come Cardas interconnects with my Tyler
Refs to good effect but with my Tyler custom Linwoods, I found the Cardas limited the speakers and swapped them for some silver Argent Audio Pursangs to connect to my Meridan pream and VAC tube amp.

Copper with Krell may be the trick. Try a few to see what works best. You'll be amazed with the right speaker wires and interconnects the full and detailed sound you can get from a pair of Tylers. They'll improve with the quality and synergy of the components you put in front of them.
