Tyler Decades Not much press but how good?


I may be in the market for some full range speakers. Looking at Revel Studio 2's and Eggleston Andra's but I am intrigued with these not so often reviewed towers.

What I have read from owners was a very consistant thumbs up across the board. That is, the talk about the Decades sonic attributes was the same from owners and all very good. The only pro review I found was for there top-of-the-line $13.5K monsters.

So far a very nice guy to deal with as others reported. So accommodating! I'm requesting outboard crossovers sized to accommodate different types of capacitors if I so choose to experiment. He builds them to match the finish on his speakers while using a black top and bottom, 3 sets of binding posts (D1's) and whatever feet you desire.

I'm still trying to decide between the D1's and the D2's (half the number of drivers). The D1's are 67" tall at 170lbs each. A bit intimidating. I don't believe in discussions with Ty, that the speakers will overload the room, but I would have to move them one day..

He uses multiple finishes with a palette of 80 plus veneers to choose from. It'll take a month to decide.
I bought D1's Decade Center D3's and 2 Decade Subs. I will take delivery next Friday. I will post my evaluation then. I will say that Ty has been very easy to work with. I am putting all this in a 15x20 dedicated room.
This is the same question I have wanted to ask. I have never heard a tyler acoustics speaker but based on all the great feedback I decided to call Tyler and ask about the decade lineup. I decided to go with the decade d20's, but still waiting on tax refund to help pay for them, looking foward to your evaluation of the decade subs and center, and as others have said Tyler is a very nice person to deal with.

There are a couple of nice reviews on the decade d2 and d1 by audiogon member Pettyfeversk
My wife wants the bigger ones, the D1's. So I'm calling Ty to place an order. No I'm not kidding. I was trying to talk her into the D2's!

I will evaluate and write a review once they are broken in. I know it'll take weeks to build and I still haven't decided on finish but I gotta say that the black ash vaneer with a light ash center panel along with the copper tweeter might look sweet.
