Vintage Tannoy Gold vs Harbeth 30.1


It seems the vintage Tannoy has a cult following.  I heard one of the reason is that those old magnets are better.  They don't lose strength over time.  But besides that, what are the benefits or reasons to choose them over new production such as Harbeth 30.1?  I guess the new production may have better technology and design.  Which one would you choose?

Haven't heard Tannoy's in 20 years or so but I have demo'd & lived with a lot of speakers in my time...NEVER in my life had better sound in my home than I do with the Harbeth M30.1's!!!
NO,IMO there is NO good reason to go vintage,todays speakers(all audio gear for that matter)use superior parts & construction techniques than anything vintage ever used...
