I had a pair of Tyler Accoustic Ref. Monitors. These speakers did not sound good (no air, felt as if there were layers or filters on the sound) with my tube gear (Graaf GM20 OTL amp, Graaf 13.5B preamp, Copland 289 HDCD, FMS cables). In comparison, my 15-year old ProAc studio-2s sounded many times superior. To be fair the Studio-2 are (24-H X 11-W X 12-D), quite a bit larger than these.
Need Recommendations for Amp/Pre or Integrated
Just to let everyone know Iam very new to this forum and any
help would be great. I have read just about every post for the last two months to help me learn more about two channel audio in general. I currently have a small home theater set-up of some Def. Techs but Iam attempting to assemble a Two- channel setup for my living room(14x25x8). I just purchased a pair of used Tyler Acoustic Ref. Monitors and stands for 1450.00. Just let me say that Ty provides true customer service. Iam looking for a Amp/Pre or Intergrated in the 2000.00 range used or new. I have been considering a new Odyssey Stratos Amp and a used Rogue Audio 66 pre. Any suggestions would be very helpfull.
Thanks
Jim
