TANNOY will stop Hi-FI ?


Hello all,
I heard Tannoy will give up the Hi-Fi part of their iconic brand. They would stop the public part for developping the "Pro" side. Do you have some infos ?

I live a couple of miles from the Tannoy factory in Coatbridge.  I have owned a pair of Eatons, Devons, Little reds, Little Golds and for the last 10 years a pair of D700 which I can't let go!  (loved every pair) Thought I'd share a wee Tannoy story from the past.  Walked in to the reception with a Devon driver - back in the day (about 30 years ago) I thought it sounded a bit dull compared to the other one, asked if I could book it in with an engineer to have a look at it.  An old guy appeared - complete with brown coat - and said "come on through son" he led me through the factory to his workshop - explaining the different workstations on the way - popped my speaker on the scope, made a few adjustments "perfect" he says. I asked what the charge was and he said "free, just come back over if you have any problems" - God I miss those days!
