Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors
Newbie, yes now I've got it, THE SYSTEM 2 is a one tweet, one 7 midwoofer, one 8 basswoofer. The SIGNATURE SYSTEM is the MTM + BASS MODULE. Lets just stay with these 2 for right now. (Tyler has 3 model lines for his Seas dricers, the Woodmere, Lin... 
how would an entry-level tube system compare?
Defiant, you do not need high sensitivity speakers with tube amps, at least not high quality tube amps. The 2 that come to my mind are Jadis and Cayin. i have the smallest of the Jadis' a 40 watt!!! , the Orch Reference, has 4 KT 90's driving the ...

Dave I'll head on over to AA right now, hope to locate your review. Now for clarification (I do not like how Ty has his speaker models labeled, I find it very confusing to recall all the models), LINBROOK SIG SYSTEM has 2 'versions" the first , ea...

Not sure why other Tyler owners are afraid to speak up about their speakers. No one is going to criticize your own personal opinion. But please be more specific than many other posts I read on other speakers. Its difficult to grasp just how the so... 
Watt Puppy 8 vs. Zu Definition
Awiavac: "...a listening experience..." There is the trained ear, and the neophyte, and all grades of listeners inbetween. I'd say it takes me less time at present to determine what the character of the speaker is. Character meaning the 4 or 5 mai... 
how would an entry-level tube system compare?
I completly agree in your point on lumping ss nad tubes into 2 piles and end of story. Each tube every lab are different, by alittle and also much. Not all tube amps are built the same, sound the same. Also agree that its OK to listen to Rock on t... 
Watt Puppy 8 vs. Zu Definition
Undertow: 'gonna be some heat on this one..." Further the fire if I may, if AW will exceuse my impoliteness. Wilson versus Zu versus Tyler. But like THsaman points out the Wilson's are not out, but at least the older version can be used, and the Z... 
how would an entry-level tube system compare?
Ido agree that the type of super hard driving music he listens to, its BRUTAL on tubes. Tubes are best for easy blues, jazz, folk, classical. Hard Rock, techno, rap go with ss. 
how would an entry-level tube system compare?
Since no one is answering your question spexcifically but are instead getting carried away raising other questions. Of you list my vote goes for Cayin. A88 goes for 1K/used,like new (good deal) or 1200/new from Hong Kong dealer. 
About the new Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 8
Froggerz how you can read folks disingenuious comment. Shame on me. But let me ask you, if it OK someone is a devotee of one brand, another of a different line, and a3rd audiogon member a big fan of yet a totally different line. I shouldn't even b... 
Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors
Rsabia, can you give us more details on the models you have and a short review on each. I believe your Taylo's are a 2 way with a Seas 7 and a Scanspeak tweeter, yes? Now you also have the mini-monitor called the Linbrook has a 5 inch seas and a S... 
About the new Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 8
Gee all this time i felt I had to hear the Theil's in south Alabama to compare with the seas. seems I have to track down Wilson's new line. Might have to go to Houston for that. 
Bloated speakers/weight wise
Line you are on the wrong topic, you should be continuing your saga over at the OHM thread. Keep on going on about the Walsh's, we're listening. 
Ohm Speakers, thoughts?
You want my thoughts? I just looked atnthe ohm web site. My wife would never allow me to place taht speaker in my listening room. Its ugly. 
Best tube amp for jazz, B300
You 300B. But not with classical. I asked my friend to put on some classical, the image was vampid, "bloodless:. No dynamics. Seems when there is too many fq's going on, the tube gets all confused and just throws out a flat image, little dynamics....
