Tyler Ref Monitors vs. Dynaudio 1.3 MK11


I'm considering going to a monitor and am wondering if anyone has an opinion on how either of these would match with my system. Or any other suggestions. I currently own a pair of Dynaudio 72's. My price range is 1200-1500. I don't mind buying used. I listen to a little bit of everything but mostly blues, jazz, some rock and roots music. I don't need a massive amount of bass but would like something with some low level impact. My room is roughly 12x15. Here is the rest of my equipment. Thanks.

Hey Jimmymac,

I have to agree w/Rmml about giving the MkII's room to breath and plenty of juice. I have mine 69 1/4" from the back wall and 42 3/4" from the side walls in my 22'x13'x9' room. I'm also driving them w/a Plinius SA-250 MkIV. I've never listened to the Tylers but I did own the Revel M-20's and sold them immediately after hearing the Dyns. I recommend you take a listen to both but I love my Dyns. Good luck w/your decision.....John
Hey Jimmymac,

The Dynaudio 1.3 MkII come w/foam plugs for the portholes that help w/bookshelf mounting. I have not tried them w/the plugs so I do not personally know what affect they have on the overall sound. I would guess that Dynaudio would not include something like this if it would adversely affect the speakers. Good luck.....John
