@kennyc I’m also heard the Tannoy at the LA THE Show. Sonically I wasn’t impressed- seemed like the sound was from old tech speakers.
Fyne was established by past Tannoy employees so their offerings are more advanced than Tannoy who doesn’t seem to invest in improvements.
Yeah, I've had my eye on Fyne since I heard about them some years ago. Sadly, wasn't in the position to buy pre-pandemic, and their prices have gone up quite a bit in just a few years. It definitely seems like they've taken the Tannoy blueprint and run with it to modernize and move it forward. I do wish the cabinets on the 700 series were nicer though for the price asked. The F1 line is beautiful, but well outside my price range.
I've talked with a few Coherent owners (15 and 18 series) and they speak very highly of them (though, talking to owners of things is never getting an unbiased opinion). They seem to consistently win awards at shows as well.
