Tannoy Westminister VS dc10 Instrument Grande V

looking for a large formal loudspeaker for our fairly large formal den 28x40 12 foot ceiling oak floors the space is open and not cluttered I'm not looking for magico even though they are my neighbors and don't like the looks of the big Wilson's plus they are too $$$ I want something that looks like real wood is very efficient and is 50K or less!

I'd take a close look at the Klipsch Palladiums. High efficiency, great looks, well reviewed. I think there's a special section for them on both the Klipsch forums and website. Good luck.

Tannoy's have a very different and unique sound that you will either love or hate . Make sure you listen to them in your system at length before purchasing .

I'm actually replacing old Klipsh Le Scalas.

I think the Tannoy top of the line with alnico mags is the ticket as it will integrate into our built in cabinets very very well and the look is 90% of the equation even though my gut tells me that the Grand Voix has more of a real reference hifi sound and the Tannoy more of a one speaker sound.

Thanks for the info now to find a dealer!

Looks matter, Tannoy Westminsters are elegance itself.

I would add JBL Everests and Cessaro (not sure if its in your budget) to your list.
