Islandmandan, I like the Dangerfield analogy! I also have heard Tannoy Edinburgh which were very nice. Very musical and enjoyable to listen to. I think the older models like the ones Dr Loesch recommended had a little something extra however. Especially driven by his amps and his designs that Joe has at Tempo Electric. I was up there last year and hung out with Joe and he was using some baffle less 3 sectional speakers that were very nice. Would have liked to have compared them side by side with some Alnico Tannoys though.
Haven't gotten around to posting my systems yet. Lotsa gear around here and a few different systems pieced together. A little of this and a little of that. Nothing too esoteric or expensive for that matter but all sounding good in their own individual ways. Not really in one camp or another. All my audio friends have different set ups than mine and each other. It's all good!
