They don't sound anything like you'd expect. One would imagine them having huge slam and presence like some of the big Altecs, but although they obviously sound like Tannoys, they are actually surprisingly relaxed and even handed, much in the same way the big Klipschorns are. Although naturally, both can do massive scale if wanted.
