| What did you replace your Aerial 10T's with? It seems to me from your description you are looking for more 'mid-bloom' (but with accuracy and warmer attributes) in your sound, but without losing any of the excellent bass and precision of the 10Ts. I would highly recommend the Tyler Linbrook ... | |
| Speakers to stands coupling A related but not direct answer - I find that much depends on what speakers you have, and what they are made of, and how heavy they are to begin with. For 'light' speakers, like Harbeth (comparatively), people use bluetack - which by the way can s... | |
| Do you pull A/C plugs during thunder storms? Curious - those of you who lost equipment, how successful were you (if attempted) at getting them replaced by insurance? Is that covered usually? | |
| Best multichannel amp for music? For your price (used), don't forget the Cary Cinema 5. It's a great amp, I lived with it for quite a while, moving from McIntosh solid state. It has a good combination of what you are looking for. | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook Signature Monitors? Newbee, I was just sticking to the monitors since that is what the poster asked for. But you are correct - I would like something for myself a bit smaller than the two piece system (which is even bigger than the one piece system). If and when I ha... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook Signature Monitors? Interesting - I always wanted to hear Silverine though never had the chance. But the Bolero's are pretty big compared to just the Linnbrook monitors, and even price-wise I think you're talking about the larger linbrook. Do you have the original Bo... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook Signature Monitors? I've had mine for 5 years, and along the line added the bass modules to make it the linbrook 'system' (two piece). I still often just use the monitors, depending on space. Since there's really a ton of comments on these on AGon, I'll just say the ... | |
| $1500 bookshelf speakers with laid-back highs? A used pair of Tyler Taylo's would be very hard to beat for that kind of money and what you are looking for - Ty has some used pairs, if he would replace the tweeters with the SEAS millenium used in the Linbrook for you I think you would find them... | |
| Be nice to nOobs David, I'm surprised - I've bought and sold many things on AGon and always had great communication with all. But playing devil's advocate, as a seller, sometimes you get 5-10 emails a day, and it takes time to respond to all of them if you are wor... | |
| Best Retailer Youve Done Business With? Not many mentions for SoCal here. DSS in Carlsbad are very helpful and happy to let you demo whatever they have whenever you want, Stereo Design in San Diego (though they won't 'haggle' much) with a very nice store and no pressure, and Weinhardt D... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler New addition to an older thread for posterity's sake... I have been playing with some Super HL-5's after looking for something to replace my Tyler Linbrooks (two piece system) which are just too big for my room. After 5 years with the Tyler's I st... | |
| What are the best monitor speakers for classical? 120 square feet is pretty small. I like Tyler Linbrooks (which I own). They are very easy to set up and listen to in the near field. I listen to classical also, and still have yet to find a speaker that does much better, especially for anywhere ne... | |
| Tyler acoustics questions I have not heard the two speakers next to each other for several years, but what I remember is that while the midrange quality and timbre was mainly similar for the two (same drivers), the Linnbrook had more bloom and fullness - this could be beca... | |
| Linbrook Sig Owners - In Room Bass Extension? Using the radio shack SPL meter and stereophile test CD 2, in a 22 by 14 room mine are about -6dB at 25 Hz. Interestingly, they're also -6 at 20. The thing is though that I have found with these speakers (and I've had other large floorstanders, su... | |
| Help Please recommend a 5ch amp around $2000 Casual, they do come up here periodically on Agon listed around 2800 or so - and I would imagine you might be able to get it for less. Even though they retail for 5k, and have received such great reviews, for some reason I have also seen some deal... |
