tannoy or devore or....


Hi all,

I’m considering upgrading my speakers to something a bit bigger than my tannoy stirling prestige SE, which ive had for about 12 years and i beleive are late 90s vintage. I’m a fan of the tannoy sound, my TV system has 1980s dovers too.

Options I’m thinking about are devore 0/96, fyne vintage classic 12 (apparently surfacing in january), and some tannoy grf memory (1980s vintage) recently popped up on a local auction site. The GRF are probably a bit big, and I can’t hear them first, but they look in decent condition.

I like the presentation of the tannoys, but they are a bit small for the current room, and I'd like something with a bit more bass depth and scale.

Amp is accuphase e280, mostly vinyl from a garrard 301.

Any thoughts? Any other speakers I should be considering in the price range? I’m obviously preferring more sensitive and vibey designs.

Heard the Fyne Vintage 12 today driven by Accuphase at the AVS show , stunning clarity, dynamics best of show beating out Kaiser speaker driven by Solutions  something wasn’t right with it. The Fyne looked beautiful, it’s a big speaker. The Fyne F704 along side it is a bigger speaker and sounded very very good, I would not be disappointed with the 704,s.
