No. They won't do that, but they're good for their size. The bass is tight too. KEF got the acoustic suspension balance just about right with the Corelli. The previous model, the Chorale had a very well tuned bottom end too, but was not as good through the rest of the range.Quote:

lol, well I'm older that you, hearing gone! Actually, my hearing is not too bad really. The HF1300 level can be a little high, but overall, should not be bad. The DM4 will reveal an amp that is a bit rough in the top end though.Quote:

How much do empty Lancasters go for? And these are Lockwoods, one of the finest sounding vintage cabs for Tannoys....re veneer...re formica...Quote:

And I can say that as a Lockwood Major user (with 15" MGs) who's heard umpteen pairs of modern Tannoys. With vintage speakers, sometimes you have to be prepared to put some effort in to get the right rewards... You can't just expect them to be 'plug & play', or for them always to look lovely :)

Little gem here - I've used one in my second system for years:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1718417699...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Townshend Elite Pre-amp
some cheap 15" Berkley cabs if anyone fancies a refurb
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tannoy-Ber...item43df0da565
people have commented on here that these are pretty good so looks a reasonable price.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Celestion-...item2a539a7dc1
They are pretty rare and collectable now and have a surprisingly large sound for a small speaker. I've had a couple of pairs. Definitely worth grabbing at that price.Quote:

S,
Might be of interest to some... however there is something I distrust about this seller... I can't put my finger on it but been keeping an eye on their listings for some time...;)

Dunno. Cash on collection seems OK. If they're crap, you walk away!Quote:

Been there, done that, owned them all, in about six different cabinet combinations. These speakers worth about the price of the drivers which is maybe £800.
I have no idea what they are but maybe someone can identify them...

They're rubbish Bev. These are just an example of 'white van man' speakers. Sold in supermarket carparks by cowboys.Quote:
