Vintage Tannoy Monitor Gold vs SF Cremona Auditor

Hi,

I am very confused between the vintage Tannoy Monitor Gold or the Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor speakers. I listen to a variety of music, I do like a bit of Bass. I am going to use a Pathos Logos integrated amplifier. I will be ever so grateful if someone could advice me which speaker I should be buying to enjoy all types of music.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!!

Nice and thoughtful post Dan.
It all comes down to taste and system objectives.
For me,I`d go with the dual concentric Tannoy and drive it with a high quality moderate power tube amplifier. That would lead to emotionally involving musical bliss.
Best of Luck,

Stan,
What is the current condition(last model year was 1974 and predates the HPD series) of the speaker you`re interested in?

The choices are 10,12 and 15 inches, which is yours?

All three of them had 92 db at 1M/1W and were 8 ohm loads(5 ohm minimum)

All three versions had an external crossover(this is good),
Regards,
