I'm Tom.
Tannoy System 10 DMT speakers in Epsom. A mate (Hi Bob) has a pair on the end of an EAR 861 valve amp and they sound superb!

(I'd buy them myself if I didn't already have a big pair of Tannoys)
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
I had a pair of DMT's, can't remember if they were 12's or 15's, I thought they were very average to be honest....
Just saying like....![]()

Hi Bev.
You been having another of your low profile spells? Not seen much from you recently.
Anyway, the DMT10s use a very different driver to the 12s and 15s which I believe have paper pulp cones. The ten inch DMT 10 has a similar cone to the later System 1000, i.e. plastic, but to my ears sound better than the System 1000, which I've owned. They give very fine results.

I believe the 12's used a plastic cone and the 15's paper..... and I THINK I had the 12's.... I can only say that at the time I was unimpressed and I paid £1K for them then.... Things may be different now though as I have found that speakers I thought rather average then (and that includes the Heresy's!!) I now find I am impressed with.... maybe be ears have changed a bit over the years....the DMT10s use a very different driver to the 12s and 15s which I believe have paper pulp cones![]()
