TANNOY will stop Hi-FI ?

@vinylvalet 

A good call.

Thank you.

BTW, my direct experience tells me that most of what Kevin Deal says should be taken with a grain of salt. He is first and foremost a marketing genius (I'm your super hip, foul mouthed buddy Uncle Kevin) along with Jason Stoddard (I created the first audio cult and everyone is welcome to join) and Paul McGowan (you're part of my family and new personal best friend).

Sheesh, give me a break.

Anyone considering Tannoy, should buy Tannoy :-) If there is any sense of urgency, it is now for anyone seriously considering Tannoy. Grab a pair made in Scotland  before you start seeing production runs from Asian continent.  

I respectably disagree. I know at least one person with good ears that went from Tannoy to Fyne after an audition. In most cases the Fyne choice was about half the price of the similar spec Tannoy.

So if you have money to burn, ignore Fyne and buy Tannoy.

What some people seem to be missing here, is the Tannoy Scottish factory closed down last year, this is not a recent event, it's possible you may get some new, Scottish made speakers, but I think it's unlikely now. Are not most of these are built to order?

Maybe search the dealers for some ex demo ones?

Plenty of used ones, come up for sale in the UK, not sure about in the US market.
