tho' there's not much in it

If anything, the Tannoys are more "beamy" than the Altecs, and while not the last word in either top or bottom end extension, the Tannoys make for hours of effortless listening and are subtle, efficient + tonally accurate
The Altecs have more of their own sonic signature, and have more forward a presentation

I could live with either speaker happily; this is really like comparing a Jaguar with a Cadillac, both quite different, both Superb
