I just got a new pair of Stirling GR's in August of this year and am enjoying them immensely. I play all sorts of music including Rock loud and they sound great. I believe if a speaker suits your taste it sounds good on all types of music. I use a Music Reference RM10 MkII light loaded on 4 ohm taps so it's about 25 watts class A and it's plenty of power. I think the 91dB sensitivity rating is somewhat low as they seem more efficient than my last 92dB speakers which were Coincident Partial Eclipse II's (also great speakers). They are keepers
Tannoy Prestige Stirling
Fortunate today for the opportunity to listen to these (thanks to Simply Stereo outside of Chicago). Don't know much about Tannoy but will be delving a little deeper after this. Very impressive. I think one of those speakers that is somewhat music dependent. They were just outstanding with jazz, vocals, acoustic music - Lyle Lovett, Miles Davis. Maybe not so much for rock - Genesis, Decemberists. Fit and finish amazing. 10" dual concentric drivers. 91 db sensitive leans towards the more sensitive speaker types i'm interested in. Primaluna tube integrated and streaming Roon. Would love to hear this setup with vinyl.
Anybody care to chime in about their more conventional models?
