EMC 1 MK II plays CD-R's,

Tyler Ref Monitors vs. Dynaudio 1.3 MK11
I bought a pair of top of the line Lynbrooks from Tyler Acostics and they are the best speakers I have ever heard regardless of price. Ty Lashbrook is fanatical about his products and you can buy with great confidence from Ty. Also the prices he c... 
The best speaker you ever heard?
The best speakers I have ever heard are the speakers that are currently in my system at home Tylers acoustics Lynbrook monitors. They retail for $4,700 new. I have listened to loads of very expensive speakers ($5,000 to $30,000+) at various shows ... 
Tyler Acoustics Reference Two VS Revel Studio
