Oh, I don’t even know the Tannoy gold is an active driver! Thanks for pointing it out. Then yes, they are very different.
Then I guess, maybe one of the reason that make the Tannoy unique is that, one can use a small power tube amp to bet a nice mid range, and yet still get decent bass because of the fact it is active? And by eliminating a subwoofer, the sound is more coherent? Maybe that’s the magic behind it?
Then my question is, is there a definite benefit to go vintage? As mentioned above, there is a bigger risk to go vintage, and some say it is better to update/upgrade the cross over.
