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 can tell you that the new Fynes are awesome. I have had a pair of 502SPs for 3 months now and they are just fabulous. So different than what I was used to but in good ways. Vocals are lifelike, Bass is deep and extended with good resonance of strings. Drums, symbols, rim shots are right there in the room with the rest of the band.

Not so!
With financing in place, Fyne Audio was officially launched in January 2017. At the end of 2019, Fyne Audio had a manufacturing base near Glasgow in Scotland, where mid-to-high-end products are built. Affordable gear, including the entire F500 range, is manufactured in China to Fyne Audio’s exacting standards.

The 501SP and 502SPs are both also made in Scotland, not China. The ones made in Scotland are works of art. The veneer used are consecutive slices so both speakers look identical as much as two slices can be. They are built as a matched pair and serial numbered as such with an A and B.

I have the Tannoy Turnberry speakers.  Excellent, full, lush sound.  I hear instruments I never knew existed on LPs I have had for over 30 years.  I've had many speakers over the years, including some that cost twice as much as the Turnberry.  None compare.  Best purchase I have ever made to improve my system.

@yogiboy  Not so!  As @brianh61 correctly points out, the SP models within the F500 range are hand built in Scotland.
