Tyler Decade D1s


Going to give Tys new D1s a audition. I love my Linbrook Sigs but my inqueseness is to large and i have to give D1 a listen. As anyone who has listened to Linbrook Sigs knows the sound is full wide and sweet, those big boys disappear in the sound.

Ty says D1s will be a large improvement on LSS. After 3 plus years with LSS they will have to be to win me over.

Are there any of you Goners that went to Rocky Mt Fest who visited Tylers room and heard D1s.

How big is your room? I hope I didn't make a mistake getting the D1's over the D2's. My room is a 15x24, 9 foot ceilings, attached to a rear hallway.
My D1's have around 200 hours on them, and are really moving from "good" to "extremely impressive", at least in my system. These have some of the most accurate bass I have heard (it doesn't sound big, just tight, just how a double bass sounds in real life), and an impressive, deep and wide, soundstage, while being full sounding, even driven with all solid state amplification. I might get a tube amp, however. I was looking hard at a set of 802D's (not that I could have afforded them at retail, but the dealer is a friend and had a demo pair if I wanted them) but the sound I am hearing from these at least equals, if not exceeds, what I was hearing from his at his store when driven by some nice Classe gears.

They still have alot of breaking in to do, as I am hearing audible differences every 25 hours or so of break-in. So far, heads and shoulders above the LSS, and alot of other similarly-priced speakers as well (I have been shopping around for a long time) I will try and post a review when I hit 300 hours. Size-wise, my room ended up being just fine for these: the sound is tight and accurate, not boomy, and really doesn't need a huge room. 12x12x8 feet won't work though!
