Tannoy Westminister VS dc10 Instrument Grande V

Thanks Q-Man!
Tough board here on AudiogoN!

I have a wall of new McIntosh which include the solid state mono amps.

I blew my budget here!

Help!

I'm actually replacing old Klipsh Le Scalas.

I think the Tannoy top of the line with alnico mags is the ticket as it will integrate into our built in cabinets very very well and the look is 90% of the equation even though my gut tells me that the Grand Voix has more of a real reference hifi sound and the Tannoy more of a one speaker sound.

Thanks for the info now to find a dealer!

The JBL does not look formal to me or my partner. We want something with the right aesthetic cohesion for the room and the Tannoy is about perfect looks wise I'm only worried that they will have that "quacky" one driver sound.

The dc10 audio is a little flashy with the two horns but I like how they look just the same and based on their components they must sound pretty damn good though they will not integrate quite as well as the Westminster and are more money, and no one has ever heard them..

I'm still confused!

I went nutz $$$$ with the McIntosh gear and got Sold. I wish I had got Leben or Audio Note or ? gear or something with tubes. Now I have huge power but hate all the big power sucking speakers.

Q,

I got the Mini's !!! I still can't believe how good Piano sounds It sounded better than live as the recording was from a very fine piano in tune a Fazioli I detected, and was correct. I've heard live piano coming from a typical piano that could not touch this sound! I hope the big ones are this good.

The dc10audio Grande Voix supposedly uses the finest most expensive drivers and capacitors/inductors/wire on the planet one woofer 4K each? plus has massive heirloom tone-wood construction 2.5" thick massive solid walnut baffle, no veneer no MDF has a bamboo ply inner cabinet thick real wood outer cab and artisan turned tone-wood horns + real innovations.

I opted for the Duelund copper option frankly at 60K per pair I don't know how they do it and if they sell to a dealer the margin would be very poor or nil?

The Tannoy would be an easier choice: less money and a known item but hey no guts no glory! My gut tells me I found the finest loudspeaker made today anywhere..and they are going to be beautiful!

3+ month wait??

I hope they can deliver this year is a three month wait normal??? as I'm not super patient!! I email Bernard @dc10 once a week..well more than that for status I'm sure their sick of hearing from me.

Clarification:

I got sold a wall of McIntosh gear OUCH! will try it with my new speakers but most likely going to sell it all or store it all (boxed) (investment) and be looking for reference tube mono blocks and I want the best! Audio Tekne? Audio Note? Leben? AR?

Ideas?

OOPS! They're sick of hearing from me.

django, AKA Vapor / Mountain high

you must be an advertiser to think that anyone boasting his/her purchase is an advertiser.

It's clear that unless your boasting about TEKTRON, Vapor, or some other speaker you get ostracized. Right vapor?
