What "club" are you talking about? She had a bodyguard in the room with us, but God knows what he was protecting her from, since she did everything that was asked of her.

I don't have to go to A&F to know that the sound isn't to my liking. It is extremely unlikey you will get anything close to high end sound with the background sound system in a clothing store. It doesn't even matter what the equipment is. The set up pretty much has to be grossly degraded. I understand that the PA system at Pet Co might be worth an audition. Shows you what you know. After some research, it turns out it is Tannoy and Biamp gear. Nah, that isn't decent gear at all. Like I said - the sound was good enough to pique my interest to the point where I would want to listen to them in an environment OTHER than in their store. But - if you had been paying attention, you would already know that part, and not go rambling on above about stuff that was never talked about. --- All opinions and comments in this message are my own, and are not on behalf of any or all of Indiana University in any way.

That's kind of funny, since for the first time in my life I'm actually becoming interested in Tannoy. Of course I'm talking about the Prestige Series, such as the Westminster Royal, GRF Memory HE, Stirling, and the one I just heard and enjoyed, the Turnberry HE. Now that I've gotten into vintage tube amps, Tannoy seems to be an interesting option. Boon |

Now that I've gotten into vintage tube amps, Tannoy seems to be an interesting option. Every now and then, Monitors Red and Golden are offered on Ebay and associated sites. If ever you have the possibility, go listen to them, preferably driven by triode amps. They're nothing like your Spendors, btw :-) Really? I just had some guy tell me that if I liked Spendors, I'd like the classic Tannoys. Are you just referring to the Red and Golden? I just listened to a pair of Turnberry HEs, and I liked the sound, but I couldn't really compare them to my Spendors because the rest of the systems are so different, too. Boon |

Wow. And this is supposed to be the mecca of expert audio opinion? AAAAAAHAHAHAHA! Who told you that? Any idea what "opinion" means? ROTFLMAO! If you don't know about the equipment that Biamp has been putting out for eons, then you have certainly been out of the loop. I'm told it's PA gear. I mostly deal with consumer audio. Maybe my living in Europe has something to do with it as well. But why bother your tiny little brain with such details, hm? As for Tannoy not being what it used to be - you are right. They are far better and more well respected. If you say so. My opinion seems to be unique, according to others. Enjoy your political bickering - I'm going someplace where the community knows something about high-end audio, and where they can stay on topic. Oh dearie. Did you ever get laid? I've forgotten more about high end audio than you'll ever know, boy. While you were in your diapers, I sold, installed, repaired and adjusted almost every high end product on the market. Not to mention listened to many good systems in well-treated rooms, unlike your single experience in a clothing shop. What'd they play anyway? J-Lo? Or was it Limp Bizkit?

I guess they died a merciful death. If you want to go into the "monstrous" part, that would be interesting. It's been a while since I heard any. I recall a single-driver bookshelf type. It had typical English sound, mellow and laid back. Probably long discontinued though. Especially the ones with the "coaxial driver" sound horrible when listening slightly off-axis. But not as horrible as when in the sweet spot. They'll sand-blast your ears off. Your opinion on this matter has a distinct tinge of the minority. I've seen this driver in almost every Tannoy product I've encountered. Now, the old Monitor Reds, that's a different story. Ugly as hell, but very pleasing sound. And LOUD! I've heard these in a studio some years back, they were driven by QUAD II tube amps. My ears still ring. Stick with a good thing, and may the Force be with you.
