None that I know of. 2 totally diffferent designs. Sorry to bring it up.
Tyler Linbrook Sig System, Short review
Well i finally got a opportunity to hear one of Tyler's many models, his Linbook Signature system. A member wrote saying he has the Linbrook Sig System (LSS) and that it would be fine if i brought my components to hear with his LSS. Tyler offers this model in either one piece cabinet or a 2 piece model, the top section houses a MTM design, mid/tweet/mid,with the lower hosing dual 8 inch wooders.
I heard his single piece cabinet design.
If Mike at this time would post something about our session to offer futher insights into the qualities of the speaker and also for members to click on the link to a view of his excellent sounding system.
I brought along my Thors/JOR/Cayin 17 as associated equipment, allowinga better feel about the LSS.
First up we haerd the LSS through Mike's dual monos called Nuforse both cdp anda fine turntable. Right away i could hear bass I was missing with my Thors. Tyler has the dual 8's xover very low allowing only the subtile 30-45 hz's a voice. The bass imaging is soft and musical, nothing flabby nor wooden. Bass notes from the cellos and timpini were now heard in a new dimension. Something not present in my Thors' dual 7's. . Ty has the upper dual 7's and tweet all phased in a tight image with the dual 8's. All 5 drivers in each cabinet intergrate in a wholeistic, better realistic sound image, "the sound stage effect".
As with my Thors voicing , the music never "attacks", the sound approaches you respectfully so that there is virtually no fatigue factor. Its a sound you could listen to all day and feel just as content the last part of the day as in the first hour.
The LSS have graet capibility to take on the mightest of amps, solid built cabinets with no resonance, the design is compact considering it houses 5 drivers, nothing flshy, so blends into any room. Modest is the word for its physical design of shape and size, but bold is the right word that displays its musical presence.
Mike did mention that he had a surround sound speaker system for his HT set up in his previous setup, but now with the Tyler's boasting a full and rich image with the LSS's 5 drivers/cabinet, that he does not miss his HT 5 speaker set up. Many new DVD's have programmed expanded sound image, so the LSS voice the sound in a seemingly 360 effect.
Thus Mike and his wife Tina feel their new Tyler LSS fit the bill as an outstanding musical system and equally for their HT set up, with the super flat panel TV mounted on their living room wall. Mike enjoys thaat room with exceptionally comfortable wide, solid, thick leathered recliners. Three of these fine 'first class" theater style seats are gathered right next to each other, a mini theater "fit for a king".
After we gave Mike's system a go with the Tyler's I felt it was time to see how these impressive speakers would perform on a small 40 watt tube amp. The seas' drivers are known as high demanding , rated at 87db.
With minor hassel up went the tube amp and the Cayin 17.
Testing cd wasa Mississippi Blues cd, offering bass and excellent vocals on several songs. Bass came through with authority, vocals with clarity, mids floating effortlessly though the room. I was impressed with the speaker's friendliness toward tubes. Really took me by surprised at the bang from the drums on the first tracks.
Quite an experience I had with the LSS. You owe it to yourself to put the Tyler's as one of your next upgrades/speaker choices. Look at Ty's web site where he lists his customers who will allow auditions in their home.
I'd like to express my appreciations to Mike and his gracious wife Tina for sacrificing part of their weekend with the audition. Had a great time with my first experience of the Tyler.
