Tyler Acoustic vs. Paradigm

Paradigm are Tyler Acoustic are completely different animal. It's like a Toyota Camry vs. a Jaguar. One is for the mass market and one is more hand crafted and specialized to a small niche in the market.

I once heard a pair of Paradigm studio driven by a Yamaha reciever and the treble sounded like a thousand of metal blade clashing at each others all at once. If you like listening to treble instead of music then go for the Paradigm. But seriously I don't think I've heard a pair of speaker that have such an cocky and junvenile sounding treble (because it reminds me of those loud boom box in the school yards) than that of a pair of Paradigm.

My friend has Tyler Acoustic Ref monitor speakers and they are great sounding and a phenomenal value. He is a full time musician (harpsichord). If you are one of the few people who do not like the Tylers, then you can return them in 20 days for a refund. I doubt you will return them.

Sorry I've never been impressed with Paradigm's speakers. Heard many if not all of their models in a variety of setups and they just leave me uninspired. There are a wide range of speakers in this price range that are vastly superior to Paradigm's offerings.

I have owned both and still have the Tyler Taylo Ref Monitors.

Tyler-
beautiful cabinets
excellent parts/construction
incredible imaging
excellent detail
work well with tubes or SS
outstanding service/support

Paradigm-
uh-lots of dealers

Seriously, we are talking diamonds vs. zirconia

I ordered a pair of Ty's Taylo Ref. Monitors with the matching stands, used in cedar, for $1340.00, with shipping. I talked with Ty twice yesterday, GREAT guy, very friendly, knowledgeable - a real pleasure to talk with. I love his trade up plan - this is one of the benefits that really hooked me. Can't wait to get them.
