Darn it...Odyssey Loreleis vs Tannoy Gold 12


I just got at home a pair of beautifully sounding Odyssey Loreleis (and lookers as well)...

But now I have a chance to buy some Tannoy Monitot Gold 12's in Cantata cabs, with xover reworked by Kara Chaffee.

The modern speaker vs the venerable Tannoy....

dilemma begins!

Hey Hey Jsujo.While I am a very big fan of Klaus Bunge's work and the voicing of his speakers,but "do not" discount the classic tannoy gold. With updated crossovers parts and proper modern cabinets they will compete head on with the odyssey as well as anything else out there in that price range. The Berning is a superb synergistic match with the Tannoy as well. Not sure of Kara's crossover work in the Tannoy but if he used the mundorf caps as what is used in the Odyssey you will be amazed at the resolution and focus of the classic dual concentric. Cantata cabs?????????? Should be an interesting shoot out. All the best on your journey.
