Upscale Audio currently has Tannoy on sale, some are "seconds" that might have undetectable scratches in places you'd likely not see. Apparently, Kevin got in a bunch of Tannoy last year that needed rework and got so mad about it, that he has switched to Fyne Audio and is closing out his existing stock of Tannoy (which other than cosmetic imperfections have no issues). At least that was the drift I caught from his postings. So anyway, you might want to check his prices. You might get "new" for not much more than used.
$3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ?
My speakers are 25 years old, working fine for now, but who knows I might have to replace them at some point in the future.
The amp would be VAC Avatar SE 60 watt/ch all tube with onboard phono stage. Nottingham Analogue Spacedeck/Spacearm turntable and couple of tape decks.
I am thinking Proac maybe or whatever.
