Tyler Decades Not much press but how good?

Using Pass Labs X350.5, no preamp yet, GCPH phono stage (has a gain control), PSA PW DAC (has a volume control) and Transport, cables are Harmonix Tech and really nice home brews ;). Speaker cables are Synergistic Research Tesla's.

The Decade D1's will go against my MBL 121's and a JL Audio F113 sub if it ever comes back from getting fixed.

It will be a very interesting comparison - no?

The Decades are in. See pics of these speakers in my system profile.

They are far more elegant in person than in the pics in Ty's website. A really good look. Check it out.

The speakers are burning/breaking in. They've been all over the place in sound. Good bass, no bass, great bass, transparent, weird, transparent again and now filled with magic. I'm at around 130 hours, maybe more.

review coming at around 200 hours for an honest evaluation. So far we're pretty excited. Transparent and dynamic, seemless integration and good looks. Just played Eric Clapton Reptile. We had some serious air guitar going while my wife and son danced in the middle of the room. The speakers were rocking with airy highs, smooth vocals and great rythmic drive. You should have heard "Sia" before that. Wow.

Yesterday I wanted to slit my wrists (no not that bad :). I hate breaking in audio equipment...

Much more to come.

Thanks for the update, glad you are liking them, I am still paying off the balce on my d20s, can't wait to get them

I wanted to update my experienc with tyler acoustics. I ended up getting a used pair of decade d1 speakers. I was going to get the d20s but after reading about the decade d1 speakers I ended going with the d1s. They are some of the nicest sounding speakers I have ever heard, and for the price paid I don't think I could have gotten anything better. I have never claimed to be a reviewer but if I had to describe the sound of would say they are very open and the soundstage is huge. The bass is tight the midrange is smooth and the highs are very extended but never bright. The decades just let the music flow like I have never heard before, and I can hear details in my fav. cds that I had not noticed, in summery I just love these speakers, they are the best upgrade I have ever gotten, Kent

Desalvo55- Let's get an update on your Decade now that it is broken in.
