Over the years Tannoy has become well known for its Prestige range of high-end speakers and rightly so. These speakers invariably couple one of the company’s more exotic Dual Concentric driver arrays (where the tweeter sits in the throat of the mid/bass unit) with a traditional-looking, usually large box and the result is almost always excellent. You have to be sympathetic to their olde-worlde appearance, of course, but even if you don’t like the look, it has always been easy to appreciate their sound.
When the news broke about the release of the new Tannoy Stirling III LZ Special Edition, we couldn’t wait to have a listen. All the ingredients seemed in place for this to be a terrific product.
