Tannoy Stirlings on the way!

Congratulations on your new Tannoy speakers. I own a pair of the legacy Arden speakers I purchased new just last year from Upscale Audio. Being an audiophile for 30 years and owning dozens of very expensive speakers, I can say the Tannoys are by far the finest speaker I have owned. Just wanted to add that even though they are efficient, they respond best with some power. Driving the Ardens with the Pass Labs XA30.8, I was able to do away completely with my two REL subs, greatly simplifying my system. With 30+ watts of pure class A high current, the Tannoys will project a wall of sound and bring a rock concert or symphony into your room. A sound of live music I never experienced with any other speakers. It baffles me why Tannoys are not reviewed by the high-end mags. Probably because none of the other manufacturers can come close to the sound of real music like a Tannoy. Again, congratulations.

“It baffles me why Tannoys are not reviewed by the high-end mags.”

I am only guessing here...maybe due to lack of initiative on distributor part to have Tannoy reviewed by TAS/Stereophile or end users prefers modern finishes instead of traditional wood cabinetry / appearance. I know they are extremely popular in South Asian markets.

You were also spot on feeding the Tannoy with atleast 30 plus watts of class A power. That’s what I am using with my Canterbury’s.

The eagle has landed!

I haven't had time to unbox them.  Just get them off the pallet and rolled into my apartment.  But I can hear them in their boxes, already, asking about tea time.

Thanks, @daniel_rusk !

lack of initiative on distributor part

That would be my guess, as well.  They just haven't been made available to the traditional outlets for review.

Awesome, take your sweet time to set them up.  If you’re placing them away from wall, be sure to experiment with VDPS 😊
