Yes, they have been around for decades. Thanks for watching

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks very much!

Thanks very much!

They are some former Tannoy people, although a few have come back since Tannoy reopened their design and assembly facility in the UK. Thanks for watching

Thank you, we hope you get the chance soon.

We agree! Thanks

Thanks, we hope you get a chance to hear them soon!

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing. Did you hear them in the same room/gear?

@@AudioAdvice No worries. I don’t like being negative and I know views are subjective but in this case I felt I had to share my thoughts. No they were not in the same room but I have heard the Stirlings twice now with two different setups. Both times they have the same disappointing result. FYI the last time I heard them was through as Sugden Masterclass and I’ve never heard anything sound bad through one of their class an amps whether it was brand new or an original from the 60’s. SGM 15’s were great. Solid state or valve, they were brill.

@@theoriginaldanalogue Appreciate the details, thanks!

Stirling III LZ is a disaster, mate. What HiFi magazine said the same thing you heard in their review. The reason is all the original Tannoy designers saw the the writing on the wall and left when Behringer bought Tannoy and shut the factory down. My friend calls them FrankenStirling because they shoved the now Chinese-made Kensington driver into a Stirling cabinet. Never should have happened.

Haha. It would!

Most certainly! Thanks for watching

Thanks very much! Glad you like them

Thanks, they had shut down their UK factory for a while after they were bought, but it has been reopened. Thanks for watching

Thanks!

Interesting design. Thanks for watching

SGM is the newer model. Feel free to reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to go over the differences and discuss what speaker system is best for your needs. Thanks for watching

They are the same except for cosmetic changes.

@@bills8770 Okay! Thanks 👍

Thanks for sharing

They're the sane speakers as Eaton, Cheviot, and Arden. Not new at all, because there's nobody at this "factory" that's a designer. The cabinets and drivers are made in China. Period. They screw the Chinese drivers into the Chinesebox in a "factory" which is a space they rent at the trucking terminal they ship from.

@@bills8770 Very sad indeed. another giant falls to china...thanks for sharing.

Thanks for watching

Two different companies.

Apparently, Fyne was started by ex Tannoy engineers.

So I’ll stick to made in America klipsch heritage to listen to my rock and roll?

Panels w subs play nice 😊​@@Altair00rion

I have to push back on this at least a bit for two reasons. While it's true that most of the company history has been substantially diluted, it doesn't mean Tannoy can't still produce a quality product. It is true that Paul Mills and Andrzej Sosna did leave Tannoy to start their own company and took several key employees with them, a few long time Tannoy employees have now returned to the company since they opened the new warehouse facility and assembly stations in Hamilton. Tannoy currently has some very skilled people involved with their engineering department such as Danny Cooklin, who is well known in the pro audio scene, having designed both drivers and systems for the likes of Turbosound, Funktion One (the gold standard in dance club sound systems), and operates a consulting design firm with Lawrence Dickie of B&W Nautilus and Vivid Giya fame. As for authenticity, neither company does their own woodwork in the UK like it was done 40 years ago, with a large percentage of production now being out sourced. The cabinets for the Tannoy Prestige series currently come from the same OEM cabinet manufacturer in Swidnica Poland as the Fyne F1 Series. One of the photos of the production facilities shows a guy building F1-5 cabinets on one table while a guy 10 feet behind him is building Turnberry cabinets. Compression drivers for the Fyne F1 series are produced in Spain by Beyma, with the rest of the driver assembly being done in the UK. While it's true that a lot more of Tannoy product is now produced in the Music Tribe facility in China, that may not be all that bad as the fit and finish of the drivers produced in China is currently better than their older UK manufactured counterparts. Over the years I've seen the inside of many vintage Tannoys ranging from the original 10" reds and silvers up to the Westminster TW, and the build quality was OK, but nothing to write home about either.

@@gregmiller3630 Thank you for your care and clarification. Compliments.

@@vitordomingues5837 Nobody, but nobody returned to Tannoy. I'm afraid Mr. Millers's information is off. Nowaday's Tannoy are about as Scottish as sushi. All drivers and components are made in China at Behringer's sweatshop. Hamilton is merely for bolting drivers into cabinets and applying 'made in the uk' stickers. Any transparency has dropped to zero, you hear nothing from them whatsoever. Tannoy was once proud, would show off any facet of its facility if you showed up at the front door. Now they all hide behind the name and legacy. BTW Danny Cooklin doesn't operate with Lawrence Dickie, he works for him, just until recently. Clever guy Lawrence, he obviously doesn't want the association, so poor Danny was thrust yo the front.
