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.

I guess the only way to know how good they are is to get a pair.

It's only been a day. BTW I think they have a trial period.

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.
