    Default Premium Birchply Tannoy GRF replicas

    The pair of lock down Tannoy GRF replicas are almost finished.
    Premium birch plywood throughout and finished in natural wax polish.

    These are my own taller, narrower design. Computer modelled to retain the same back loaded horn characteristics as the original design.

    Customer can't collect yet, as locked down in Leicester at the moment!

    Just the grille covers to go.

    These feature the tear drop bass clean up baffle.

    Wired for external crossovers and bi-amping

    Lovely job as usual Steve. Would like to hear a pair of these.
