NONE of the uncouth quacky and stingy sound of dave's bog standard IIILZ's for example, the rear panels of which vibrated alarmingly on bassy notes at modelst levels.

Tannoy worked extremely hard on the crossovers of the larger DC drivers back in the early 80's and I really think it's worth Googling up a few sites to find out what they've done, as they were aware of things needing to be done and it seems, dealt with it rather well from what I've read and heard.
I'd just like to say Dave that i found that other 'Tannoy' thread very entertaining to say the least! I don't find the Turnberry treble an issue neither, maybe 'sting' is too strong a word for it, maybe more of a 'slight colouration' would be nearer the mark. I haven't heard any other Tannoys so can't comment, but i love the overall balance of my turnberry's, but i can still hear that very 'slight colouration', but it's overall balance, superb imaging and bass, means the Turnberry's will be gracing my lounge for a long time.
