Tannoy Stirlings on the way!


Hi, everybody.  Longtime member, first time caller.

I just ordered up a pair of Tannoy Stirling GR floorstanders, and, frankly, I'm looking for people to rejoice with!

I'm a speakers guy, through and through.  I've got Dynaudios, Focals, B&Ws, Totems, Wharfedales, Klipsches, and even my old Polk 5Bs, the first speakers I ever bought, way back in the '80s.  I wanted to try something very different, and the Prestige line Tannoys really spoke to me.  The coincident drivers, the old-school-ish paper cone, the old-school cabinets and ports.  I'm really looking forward to hearing how they soundstage!

I thought about getting the Turnberrys, but the Stirlings should be just about the perfect size for my [extremely irregular] room.  Especially since I already have a pair of subs.

I'm pretty chuffed.

Question: Are any of you using the 3rd binding post?  If so, did you find 3-wire speaker cables, or are you using a separate wire?  Do you find it actually gives your Tannoys a quieter background?
Higher end van den Hul speaker cables were designed for use with Tannoys. They have a third ground wire with a spade connector. My Cumulus sound fantastic on my Dalis. No experience with Tannoy.

Hear! Hear!

Moabs are the "In thing" these days. Big, flashy and Splashy.

Hell of a buy by the pound! Or so the owners report.
