    Oh, a fair bit then. I haven't read much about them other than the opinion pieces on AoS so wondered if it was a case of different drivers etc.

    Thanks.

    I've heard most versions of the Edingdales and the MK1s are the ones to have IMO . They're the original and best , and are very audibly superior to everything that followed . The buyer is making a big mistake here in my opinion . Gary's MK1s are in excellent condition , and have been offered here at a very good price

    If I didn't already have my Tannoys these would have definitely been on my radar. I know Tony (weeteecee) loves his pair and he has a good ear.

    Very interesting indeed Brian. I haven't heard the other versions but will be sticking with my MK1s.

    I have a very early pair of mk1 Edingdales and I love them. The very last version, the GT is very good, only one set exist, these are Colin’s, if I recall correctly.

    I would buy gazjam’s pair if I had the space, if only for spares.

    Somebody really needs to snap these up, they don’t become available that often. I would be more than happy to help with any transportation issues if this helps any buyer.
