Tannoy or Volti

I have a friend who has the Tannoy Prestige GRF 90 for sale he is moving out of the country for half price, he paid $29000 in around 2020 not made in China. I am upgrading my Forte IVs, I am also considering the Volti audio Lucera…anyone that has heard the Tannoy and any other suggestions which will be better would be appreciated….I have a few first watt amps and several tube amps…plus Jeff Rowland and Pass Labs amps..

I really like and have heard both the Volti Rival and Lucera but I've not heard any Tannoy GRF speakers. The Volti's should be easier to drive if that's an issue.

Not an issue, I have a Pass Labs amp and a Jeff  Rowland which ever sounds  the best…..doesn’t have to be any of the speakers I mentioned…any thing in the $16000 range

Used Prestige GRF 90s regularly sell for ~$9K, +/- $1K, based on condition. While a concentric speaker like that is intrinsically different from your Forte IVs, the Voltis are much the same, so while you might prefer the Voltis to the Forte IVs, it is more of a lateral move, IMO. Enjoy!
