Tannoy vs Klipsch

IMO, having owned many versions of both makers but not the models your inquiring about I would buy Tannoy any day over Klipsch.....but if you want to step out of the box lots of speakers that better both and will work amazing with your amps which I love..

I owned the old Klipsch Heresy since I was 16 and still have at 53 and La Scalas for the last 10 or more years and one poor 1980s example of Tannoy I would also say there are better my attachment to the Klipsch is almost purely sentimental and for high decibel moments which are getter fewer and farther between.

Klipsch made my eardrums bleed. Agree with Mechans -- I prefer Tannoy.

I don't own, but have friends and family that do, Tannoy any day, 24/7.

My exposure is limited but I tend to think of Tannoy as more British sounding Klipsch, similar to other differences between many North AMerican/US lines and British competition.

Then there are "French" horns and the French sound. Triangle has moved towards incorporating more horn designs into their speakers it seems in recent years.

British sound is more laid back and warmer. French is fast and detailed. North American/US is generally somewhere in the middle.
