I’ve used these for the last 5 years or so and never had the urge to change them, except perhaps for a longer pair. Superb. Certainly for Tannoys you don’t need any more than these.

Just out of curiosity: how are these "vintage"? Is it like cheddar rather than wine? :scratch:

Old copper wiring - stripped out of a disused telephone exchange, I believe, that was wired up by Western Electric.

Guaranteed well run in. :lol:
