Manley + Tannoy = music 
What is the best amplifier for Tannoy Kensington ?
What Manley did you listen to? I guess it was not Snapper, cause they are quit funky and PRaTy on rock with Kensington.

Looking for opinions on Tannoy Prestige line.
You have to, of course, check out foryourself. At this level of equipment it's all about tailoring a setup for your own preferences. However, if you ask; I second the others owners here of Tannoy  I'm totally sold on Tannoy Kensington, if you have... 
What speakers have best bass for hip hop, and rock
With popular music, and especially hip-hop, you'll need a setup that excel at PRaT, vocal naturalness and not being hard-sounding with overly compressed productions. There are two setups, in my experience, which handles all of these three characte...
