Back home? I didn't even know that you had Tannoys, never mind that were away anywhere! It's always amazing how folks presume that everyone else automatically knows what's happening in their little world... :eyebrows: ;)

So, daftee, which Tannoys are we talking about exactly (the answer to that will determine whether the thread stays here, or is moved to Past Masters)? And yes, when you get a chance, please post some pics of the aforementioned work having been carried out, and let us know what you think of how they sound :cool:

Time to fire them up :)

:popcorn:

[Audio Al]

:popcorn:

:eek: Hmm sounding nice , I am playing with the roll of adjustment at the moment , What do you have yours set 2 Geoff ?

[walpurgis]

Apart from the IIILZ which had a slight bite at the top. I've always used Tannoys with controls set level. My Cheviots are the late 3128 model. But I did the same with my HPD and MG 12" speakers.

If the balance isn't right with level controls I look elsewhere. An amp change or cable change is sometimes needed.

[pgarrish]

Get them off the ground at least 6 inches, they'll sound miles better. Good choice though ;) Love my chevvies
