Tannoy Prestige Stirling

I have a pair of Tannoy Churchill’s with the add on super tweeters. I would never give them up. They are remarkable heavenly sound speakers. Warm, smoothie yet clear and precise. They pair well with mcintosh components.. I have a mc 500 amp driving them and the sound stage and bass extension are sublime. Good luck they will be a lifetime investment and a foundation to build your dream system on..

I've heard the Turnberry GR a few times at our music club Meetup. Fantastic speakers and eye candy as well.

I own a pair of Tannoy FSMs built in the late 80's. 15" dual concentric
with a 2nd 15" woofer. Powered by my Cary 120 MK11S or Pass
Labs kit 8 watt class A monoblocks. Biwired with Kimber 8ts custom
split to 3/5 tweeter/woofer. If you missed the home interview on youtube
with Nelson Pass you may enjoy it if you are a Tannoy fan. Episode 4 or 6 I believe. Merry CHRISTMAS!!

Lots of lucky Tannoy owners out there.  It was the GR that I heard.  Two things that impressed me most:  First, the micro details in the upper end were amazing.  Cymbals were immediate and crisp (attack and decay?).  I felt like I heard every little ding and tick.  Then the palpable midrange with vocals and horns.  You could hear the spit in the trumpet and sax. You could not just hear them but feel them as well.  Maybe an aspect of using larger drivers that handle a wider frequency range?  Overall, a very detailed presentation without being clinical - if that makes any sense.
  
When I started a different thread about high sensitivity speakers I think this is what I had in mind.  Came home and the old Snells were sounding just a bit lifeless!  :-(  The Tannoy would probably sound great with my Jolida.  I thought the salesman said they were $6k but I see them for $3k.  Still out of my budget unfortunately.  Don't see them around used much.  I'll have to keep my eyes open! 

Good stuff!  So much still to discover.  I've been into audio for years but still consider myself a newbie.

For all of you, who don’t like the sound of Tannoy dual concentric speakers - these speakers are not forgiving. If your equipment and cables are not up to par, the Tannoy will sound terrible. Even the legendary Nelson Pass is using only Tannoy speakers in order to troubleshoot his equipment, and even he has trouble getting them sound wright. Inferior speakers will sound better if your system is not optimized.
