millenium or revelation tweeter?

I just broke in a Linbrook Signature with the Seas Millenium - my other speakers have the Dynaudio Tweeter. I've not heard the Revelator, but what I have heard of it reminds me of similar comments about Dynaudio. The Seas is very smooth and natural - no etched or piercing highs. I love the fact that it does not draw attention to itself - and it makes speaker placement a bit easier than with the Dyna's. FWIW.

I own Tyler Acoustics speakers with both kinds of tweeters...

My feeling is they are both fabulous tweeters, and are equals (just different sounding).

The Revelator is a bit more detailed, while the Millenium is more natural.

If I *had* to choose one for *my* use, I would say I prefer the Revelator by ever slight a margin, but I have a preference for detailed sound. I would not say it is the "better" tweeter, but rather it is more in line with my preferences.

Both tweeters sound fabulous in all the speakers from Ty, BTW.

I have owned numerous speakers from TA. I prefer the Scan speak units. I feel they have more air and detail. That could be due to my taste in music. I even had TA use the upgraded Ring Rev. tweeter and that unit is expensive but amazing. I do agree some folks might feel that the Scan Speak is a bit more forwarded or detailed. It's all a matter of taste.

Hey Gold,

I also was considering asking Tyler to make a custom monitor with the Scanspeak ring rev. How does it compare to the revelator (which I have now). Also how much did the custom speakers go for at TA.

After starting this thread many months ago, I had Tyler build a custom 3 way Linwood pair of speakers for me with the Millenium tweeter. I got these speakers in mid-summer and finally have the rest of the system workign with them. I also have a pair of Tyler's Ref. monitors in my den with the Revelation tweeter's.

My conclusion is that they are both great tweeters. I agree with Ty that the Millenium is slighty airer and more life like, the Revelation maybe a bit richer. I like them both and would be happy with either in either pair of speakers I own.
