TANNOY will stop Hi-FI ?
So is Tannoy really "dead" or at least without any support ? 
to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner)
I have a KLAudio for a few years. Very happy with that. Bought a Keith Monks Discovery. I think I need both. 
What phono preamp are you using?
Air Tight ATE2. 2 phono MM inputs and 1 Aux. Phono section driven by 12AX7 (ECC803S telef(3). Line section : 2 Ecc88 (in my case replaced them by nos E188cc).PSU incl :  12BH7 (nos Tungsol Sol), 6X4 (nos GEC), EF86 (E80F for me is the best EF86 if...

Townshend Seismic Isolation Podium Platform Review:
@cd318,I’m surprised also. But don’t forget the bars are under the Hifi Racks support, not directly under the speaker.I will soon receive a pair of Kensington to compare with the Harbeth. So I can try with and without the bars.

What is the best amplifier for Tannoy Kensington ?

Thanks Dover for sharing. I have Air Tight ATM3. First owner 25 years ago with only one trouble 4 years ago (the timer for tubes filament heating protection on one amp), so very happy with AT, but I would like to simplify and thought Leben could b... 
What is the best amplifier for Tannoy Kensington ?
I will soon have a pair of Kensington GR. I’d like to drive them with the 15 watts Leben for downsizing and simplify my system. Does anyone have any experience with that kind of marriage ?

I like the old Tung Sol sound too.
