Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Rectangular GRF I think.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Yup. With the drivers worth what, a couple of grand? I enjoyed mine at the time mind you but the cab is designed for Monitor Golds.Rectangular GRF I think.

I'm building some tranmission line cabinets for the 2528 dual concentric drivers.
All the plywood panels cut and internal batterns fitted, front and rear panels finished with required cutouts.
Just internal line to be fitted, then p.v.a times
You don't see many Tannoy DC's with transmission line loading and I kinder like the idea.
Nothing ventured etc...

Yup. I have something similar in mind also using 2528 drivers. I've bought a good set of SRM 10B paper pulp cones to fit in mine. Could be promising.

Almost certainly go to a collector in Japan, I suppose it's relative RHRs are as scarce as hen's teeth and do sound nice.Jeez... For those with more money than sense!
As I said, value is relative, if you factor in rarity, they may be worth that to a very serious collector. These were no designed for MGs or HPDs for that matter, Ronnie designed these for that specific driver and they were the best they could make at that time. Ronnie was a great designer and I had the privilege of discussing speaker and horn design with him on a number of occassions, these were really his swansong with the company. Would I drop that kind of cash on them if I won the lotto? No way, but as I said, like your mother in law, it's all relative
Yes, but is the house big enough to get a pair of GRFs inKin'ell!!!!! I've just bought a terraced house for less than that!!!!!
