Anyone have heard of Tangent RS-8 speakers


Has anyone heard of the topline speaker from Tangent 25 years ago? What's the speaker sensitivity?
Is it musical?
I wonder how this pair compared to the modern speakers.

TIA

Peak Audio here in Halifax sold a lot of Tangents. A friend of mine still has a pair but his current speaker is an older pair of spenders. Another friend is running his tangents with an older rotel intergrated and cd player 855. Very balanced sound. Very listenable. If you can get them cheap they are easy to live with. I remember when he brought the tangents over to try in place of my Angstrom references. Well, the tiny tangents smoked them in every way except bass dept. I dumped the angstroms soon after. I was using the nad 3020 at the time. Good luck.
