Been away for a few days and I am now chilling out with a little tipple and still getting used to the Tannoy's...

I only had a night and a half with the Tannoy's before I went away... They are again sounding very good which is always a good sign... :cheers:

Thanks Grant... I saw them a bit late....I contacted the seller earlier and they are provisionally sold... damn it... :doh::doh:

However I am really enjoying the 800's... boy these things grow on you.. they are very musical and they have absolutely no listener fatigue..you can listen for hours on end... very nice.. :)

struth

I can imagine. nice speakers they are; glad your liking them as its nice to have a change of presentation every now and then

They are certainly different than the Klipsch but in a nice way... am I going to rush and sell the Heresy's ? no definitely not, I can't ever see that happening... I will, after some time, put them back and see which I prefer though... :)

Have you heard the 800's Grant ?

struth
15-05-2015, 23:18
Not heard them but heard of them; good driver. If I get my price for mine I will sell them but not desperate tbh. Wont bother me if I keep them. They are fantastic and so efficient too. but I really love my Cara's and suit my needs more at moment having a bass radiator rather than the extra driver.

struth
15-05-2015, 23:22
I think they share the same driver actually as the system 800

Those look lovely Grant.. The System 800 uses the 2046 driver which I think is the same as yours.. ;)

Just slurping my way through this:

2012 Chai au Quai ‘Le grand Chai’, Bordeaux

http://www.laithwaites.co.uk/images/uk/en/law/product/65541b.png

A wine that shows just how moreish young claret can be. It's from the Haut-Brion trained Jean-Marc Sauboua at Le Chai - a blend of three parcels of Merlot, largely from the Côtes de Bourg - a rich silky Bordeaux with irresistible, ripe, plump fruit.

13% ABV, approx £10 a bottle.

Enjoyed with tonight’s meal of wild boar and apple sausages, crushed mustard potatoes (that’s potato with their skins, mashed with a little bit of single cream, butter, garlic pepper, and Dijon mustard), spinach, fine beans, sweet-corn, peas and broccoli.
