Tyler Acoustics PD-80's arrived

I don't even know where to begin so I may jump around a bit, but here goes.

Tyler PD-80's with built in sub amps.
They are BIG, I actually felt intimidated.
They are HEAVY, you'll never move them around alone.

I don't claim to be an audiophile, but I do know what does and doesn't sound good to ME.

The sound is much better than I had imagined. I figured they would be great for loud listening, but I had no idea they would sound as good as they do at low volumes. Right now I am listening to Diana Krall and the Mcintosh is peaking out around 0.35 watts and it sounds absolutely fantastic. I am hearing sooo many subtle things I never had before.
As for loud, it is almost scary. Super tight punchy bass I never expected from 2-15 inch woofers. No boom no lagging just plain old blur your vision slam. The mids and highs are super clean and crisp and Ty was right the horn does sound more like a normal tweeter. I am not hearing anything harsh or anything else that shouldn't be there.

As for Ty of Tyler Acoustics, you've heard it all before, he's an awesome guy!!!

If any of you are in the Calgary area and would like a listen, you are absolutely more than welcome to contact me.

its good to hear you like really like ty's new speaker. his speakers probably offer some of the best performance vs. price in the industry. this design was to offer the consumer the touch of a audiophile speaker but with balls to the walls performance, especially when driven HARD. TY's speakers have also caught the eye of THE ABSOLUTE SOUND reviewer ROBERT E. GREEN. he was raving about the sound of ty's speaker line at the 2005 THE S.H.O.W. and gave his various speaker lines and his company high honors. at the 2006 CES SHOW he listened to one of the smaller version's of TY'S new line the pd-20. he was again impressed with what he was hearing especially with a horn tweeter. this line varies from his traditional audiophile speaker lines. this design was to bring the fun back into listening to music before we were being told HOW THINGS SHOULD SOUND. from what you have reported it sounds like TY hit a homerun !!! its not to often a factory direct company gets recognition from a magazine where the company does no advertising. now open that MAC AMP up and let us know what they sound like CRANKED !!!!!
