Tyler Acoustic Linbrook Super Towers

Hi Holly, nice review and was close to as I figured the image would be. Basically with the Super you are getting 2 added W17's per cabinet. Correct? Which only adds more midbass/midrange. Not sure why you would go that route when you can get dual W22'/per cabinet in the Lin Sig Sys at near the same price.
"as others have commented on the Seas drivers"...there are no "others" ...its me doing all the cheering. You are spot on about the Seas' imaging, percise, clean, accurate. The Seas Millenium Tweeter is much superior to any/all ribbons. I can't stand ribbons. Many over at Madiisound disscussion board have stated the Millenium tweeter is the best they ever heard. Its certainly the finest I've heard and even beats out my opd Philips tweeter which was the finest tweeter back in the 1980's. Macintosh even used the Philips tweeter.

Then I would agree with a excellent sub, the Super towers with 4 7 inch W18's per cabinet would throw one "super size" sound stage. Thats 8 W18's projecting the midbass/low midrange!!!!! Unreal. Wow! I'd love to hear just that speaker even w/o a sub on my best orchestral/opera selection. You may have provided this senario for others to work out, sub + Lin Super Tower for a spectacular vibrant sound stage image. As the T25 Millenium tweer is beefy enough to cross low enough to meet the W18's (the W18 which equally are engineered to meet tweeter higher w/o breakup) that tweeter will not get "lost in the fray' from competeing with 4 midbass'. That would be some folks concern. But I'd bet the tweeter shines through with color. Correct? I nteresting and creative setup you got there. I'd love to have your speaker with a single Seas Excel W26 acting as sub. Though not a "true sub", still it should deliver all the lower fq's with performance.

Holly, from your comments on how classical music is projected as a full symphonic field of sound stage with EIGHT W18's in the Linbrook Super Tower's, this may help me to decide in my purchase of one of Tyler's models. The new Woodmere 2's have only 2 W18's, with 2 W15's + T25. I'm not so sure orchestra will have the body I'm looking for with the W15's. The T25 alone can carry all the violins, high winds etc, so that the cellos, bass cellos, violas, deep brass can have more voice with dual W18's in the Linbrook Sig Sys. So this may be my better choice which I was not sure of, that is until I read your comments. IF I could somehow intergrate a single W26 as sub into my system ( not sure if possible w/o dual amps) then I would also go with the Super Towers. But as it is , I'll stay with the Lin Sig Sys for its dual W22's, which carry excellent low bass. The Super Towers are now on my mind, and will take a closer look at them. Considering most of the orchestra is in the midbass.midrange fq's, I may have Ty cross 2 of the W18's in the Tower's real low, still they will not carry the authority of the W22's in the Lin Sug Sys. The cellos, bass cellos will sound "weaker' with via the W18's(Super Tower) vs the dual W22's(Lin Sig Sys) Tough call. Do I want the HUGE soundstage with great orch presence ,of the Super Towers, or the deeper voicing of the cellos in the Lin Sig Sys. Tough call.

I am not surprised the Millenium does not "get lost" among the voicing of four W18's.
Keep us up to date on your review of the Lin Super Tower. Very few folks know much about this model. In fact I hardly ever see Ty ad it.

Which Woodmere, 1's with the dual W26's, dual W18's, Millenium or the new 2's with Dual W22's, dual W15's, Millenium. So we are talking a very different speakers in terms of the "Seas Excel Sound" (a sound unique to the Seas Excel driver, you won't get this voicing in from any other driver). Not sure why Ty used the name Woodmere in this design since the only driver used as in the 1's is the Millenium tweeter. ...anyway, I'm guessing you mean the new Woodmere 2. You may be on to something here with a "weaker sound stage" due to the higher voicing of the dual W15's, vs the "beefer" image comming from the dual W18's in the W1's. I love the voice from the W18's in my Thor's and am not willing to risk losing that midrange/midbass imaging..that is if I went with the W1's. The W15 is a very small driver and I seriously doubt if it carries anywhere close to the midbass of the superb midbass from the W18's. Also the dual W22 used in the W2's can be found in the Lin Sig Sys design along with dual W18's. So I would have to go with the Lin Sig Sys vs the new W2's for my classical/orchestral/opera. And if I had the extra cash would take the W1's over the Lin Sig Sys. The W26 seems it would offer the "ultimate natural" bass offering. My 2 cents, when i talked with Ty months ago, he was still forming his opinion on the voicing characteristic of his new W2's with the W15. I hope to get up to his studio sometime later this yr, after I move back to my NO home. I'll bring along my JOR and modified Cayin 17, provided Ty allows. To be honest my expectations of the voicing in the 3 designs, W1's , W2's, Lin Sig Sys will be that the 3 will voice different in a minimial sense. IOW each design will offer something unique to each listeners ears and in such a subtle difference that you really can't go wrong with any of the 3. Though which of the 3 is best(style of music, SP level, etc) for you , only you can determine. Of the 3, the Lin Sig Sys appeals most.
