I heard well sorted Tannoy 12" HPD based speakers which sounded very decent. If I would have to live with Tannoy speakers I would probably try to find those drivers , that is 12" HPD model and build suitable enclosures. As to mine 10" Red's I couldn't find the crossover diagram and was not willing to trash the original crossovers trying to decipher what topology Tannoy used in those sealed tar filled boxes. Using a front horn for 10" with suitable bass section could also be the way to utilize the smallest Tannoy in a modern setup. I did make a preliminary experiments and it sounded promising. Usually I like what other people like but maybe lack a little bit in enthusiasm department.
