much vaunted Tannoys.

Dunno why.


**I do. They 'honk'.

The Tannoy Monitor Gold series are stunning in their stereo
stage management.


**Perhaps. They do so many other things wrong, though.

I heard them a lot in UK studios in the 70s and the
only thing that came anywhere near then were the big JBls. We had 15 inch
Golds in huge Lockwood cabinets on wheels at Neve for checking the sound
of consoles. I still use a pair of 2 inch Monitor Golds to this day. Best
speakers ever invented IMHO.


**That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. Speakers tend to be a
personal choice product. What works for one person, doesn't for another. I
don't like dual concentric speakers. Mind you: I am partial to a properly
executed and set up pair of ESLs.
