I only used the H2's for one day before collecting the Tannoys so hard to say at the moment , I will be haveing a massive sort out of my room where all the equipment shelf heights need to be raised so I can move the 3 sets of newly aquired speakers ( Usher dancer mini 2 diamonds , H2's and the Tannoys ) under the lowest shelves as I am going back firing across the room rather than along the room , Wish me luck as this is going to take me days to completeOriginally Posted by killie99
