FWIW, I own the Turnberrys. Like 'em very much. The midrange is great, and so is the overall presentation.
IMO, a very good choice for classical, jazz, and easier going stuff. I like a warmer type presentation and these are delivering just that in conjunction w/ my Conrad Johnson tubed equipment.
I've thought about the moving up to the Kensington's because of all the good I've heard about them. But, as you said, big $'s. And anyway,as I have said, the Turnberrys do a great job.
BTW, I just love the look of Tannoy's prestige line.
Good luck with your shopping!
