Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: High efficiency speaker with great reproduction of speech

There is an official and quite complex measurement of speech intelligibilty called STI (see link).

Tannoy DCs always were pretty good at that and to the best of my knowledge so are Tom Danleys products. I would assume that Altecs are good as well as it seems to favour point sources.

That said the people I know who have experience with both Altec co-axials and Tannoy DCs do give Tannoy the edge overall. Tannoy even produced the FSM-U which fitted into the soffit designed for Urei 813 (Altec co-ax + 15" woofer) upon request from US studios.
