EV12 TRXB vs Tannoy D-500


I have a pair of Electrovoice 12 TRXB's in some beautiful cabs, with vintage McIntosh tweeters as supertweets...I removed the backs of the cabs and that improved the presence of the trxb's quite a bit.

Now, I have a chance at some Tannoy D-500's...

I wonder if its a definite upgrade??

McIntosh MC40's managed by a Berning TF-10 is the main hardware.

If you have 300 SETs, the TRXBs will sound even more amazing. Definitely GRF or Aristocrats ( folded horn or transmission line ) cabinets will bring the best out of coaxial speakers.
The TRXB works best in a folded corner-horn enclosure. They were called Aristocrats. If you can't find or build such and enclosure, you MAY be better with the Tannoy's.
