There are no Tannoy dealers in the NYC area, and, as far as I've been able to find out, none in the northeastern U.S. Peter Lanzilotta is trying to find a pair somewhere I can listen to. He says he can still get them when I'm ready to buy, but has nothing to demo.
Tannoy is now a company that is completely unreachable. It's part of the Music Group, which has a "contact" link on its web site that allows no contact whatsoever. Music Group closed Tannoy's Scotland factory, saying they were moving it to China.
The junky small speakers, which I believe are a "Tannoy" label stuck on somethingorother, are still distributed, along with the Eclipse floorstanders, about which no one says anything good. Full-size dual-concentrics seem to have been killed off.
If I'm wrong, PLEASE let me know.
