Tyler Decades Not much press but how good?


I may be in the market for some full range speakers. Looking at Revel Studio 2's and Eggleston Andra's but I am intrigued with these not so often reviewed towers.

What I have read from owners was a very consistant thumbs up across the board. That is, the talk about the Decades sonic attributes was the same from owners and all very good. The only pro review I found was for there top-of-the-line $13.5K monsters.

This is the same question I have wanted to ask. I have never heard a tyler acoustics speaker but based on all the great feedback I decided to call Tyler and ask about the decade lineup. I decided to go with the decade d20's, but still waiting on tax refund to help pay for them, looking foward to your evaluation of the decade subs and center, and as others have said Tyler is a very nice person to deal with.

There are a couple of nice reviews on the decade d2 and d1 by audiogon member Pettyfeversk
Jfondell, just wondering how you are liking the decades, I should be getting mine soon, Kent
Thanks for the update, glad you are liking them, I am still paying off the balce on my d20s, can't wait to get them
I wanted to update my experienc with tyler acoustics. I ended up getting a used pair of decade d1 speakers. I was going to get the d20s but after reading about the decade d1 speakers I ended going with the d1s. They are some of the nicest sounding speakers I have ever heard, and for the price paid I don't think I could have gotten anything better. I have never claimed to be a reviewer but if I had to describe the sound of would say they are very open and the soundstage is huge. The bass is tight the midrange is smooth and the highs are very extended but never bright. The decades just let the music flow like I have never heard before, and I can hear details in my fav. cds that I had not noticed, in summery I just love these speakers, they are the best upgrade I have ever gotten, Kent
I am still loving these speakers and since I last posted they sound even better
