He is right you know I love my Turnberrys, very nice

Dave. The Turnberrys are *excellent*. A good friend of mine,
a music teacher, has a pair. He didn't sleep for three nights after they
were delivered:-)

It would be interesting to compare them with the original Lancasters, but
as he and I live 300 kms apart, the logistics are not simple to arrange.
I am told, there are more pairs of Westminsters in Sweden than in the UK.
Lowther has a strong following there too.

Smart people these Svenssons:-)

They are a great speaker, yes more Westminsters in Sweden than UK they
have bigger living rooms.

Yet the country with the most is Japan and there living rooms are
smaller than here
The only person I know in UK with a set, has them in a room same size
as my office
lol
