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?

I have 12" Monitor Gold's in self made 190L cabinets. Devore Orangutan 093 styling.   Audio Note supplies all the goods. They easily replaced a set of ANK spe's.
I immediately noticed the layering/ separation of instruments and details that stood out. It's very enjoyable to  hear details in music which you had not noticed before. It makes upgrading justifiable. LOL
