Tyler Acoustic vs. Paradigm


I am considering a set of Tyler Acoustic Taylo Ref. or Paradigm Studio 40. Close to same $$ and size. Any opinions on these?

Listen to Gmood1.
1. With the Tylers, your getting a beautifully hand crafted speaker, which contain the highest quality parts, made personally by one of the good guys in audio.
2. Your supporting a small business based in Kentucky.
3.You'll be dealing personally with the owner of the business, and builder of your speaker.
4. If you call Ty he'd be happy to discuss your needs with you.
5. He'll take the speakers back if you don't like them.
Is there a down side here?

Just curious - Do you get any of this with Paradigm? hmmm.

Yes I own a pair of Linbrook Signatures and a pair of the little Freedom F-1. Both are superb at what they are designed to do.

I might even buy your used Taylos if you don't like them. Pick a nice finish, please. :-)

You're not going wrong. I have the same exact speaker that you have coming. They are outstanding. Be patient though. They need alot of break in time.

I have a dual purpose system. Yep! HT and 2 channel. I primarily listen to 2 channel now. My movie viewing has diminished greatly.

BUT - The Linbrooks do it ALL! :-) They really are fantastic. I find them to be very easy to position in the room too. A real advantage when going HT!

Just let them break in for 500 hours before you decide. 300 hours they'll start to sound really nice though. BTW - they look beautiful too. :-)
Amp = Krell FPB400cx!
Preamp = First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk II

That's punch! :-)
The question is - Which is most important to you - How a speaker sounds, or how a speaker measures? hmm....
