Anyone remember this speaker.. maybe Tannoy?
I remember there being a 3 way speaker released around 1982 ish which had an elliptical bass driver (which was not a B139 or EMI unit) which was made possibly from glass fibre, and was sold as being very high power handling and with pro monitoring in mind as well as home use... it was maybe BC1 ish size but taller and narrower IIRC.... I never heard of it again bar I think one review and have a bizarre idea it was made by Tannoy... there may have been an active option.... £1800 or so then. Definitely UK and very odd for the brand I recall... not what you would expect them to make!
Any ideas? I'm sure I'm not imagining them... and they must have been very few made...
