the Adire HE series projects based on the Eminence coax drivers are regarded to be pretty darn good for the money, if you're looking for a taste of the technology. The latest iteration of this technology is found in Tannoys industry leading. First developed in 1947, the technology has been subject to constant evolution and refinement over successive decades, taking advantage of new materials, manufacturing methods and ongoing acoustic research. Tannoy does make 'dual concentric' studio monitors at a much lower price point, but they aren't seen as having the same magic as the high-efficiency paper cone units. TANNOY is renowned for developing the first true point-source transducer - the Dual Concentric driver. The Tannoy drivers and speakers are expensive largely because they've earned their way to the top of the 'food chain', and command a premium price.

To the original poster, you probably need to distinguish between coaxial drivers in general and the Tannoy dual-concentric drivers specifically. Tannoy AMS 5DC Features: Next-generation Dual Concentric driver featuring Omnimagnet technology Torus O give waveguide for improved broadband directivity 16. With the advent of very high precision, high-pressure zinc die-casting processes during the eighties an extra degree of flexibility was beginning to appear first in manufacture and then in design of the Tannoy Dual Concentric. Do you think they can hit say 400Hz in a Tractrix for low-power domestic use? Previously all Tannoy Dual Concentric drive units used the single magnet philosophy pioneered by Ronnie Rackham in the late forties. TANNOY is renowned for developing the first true point-source transducer - the Dual Concentric driver.


I've heard good things about the Radians too.Īlso Brett - on a slightly different coaxial note, are you still using the BMS 4590's? I've been playing with some Unity style projects, but I'm starting to think that a 4590 in a round Tractrix or maybe a Geddes style elliptical OS horn would be a more straightforward way to go. The P-Audio cones look good, but I'm less sure of the compression drivers.

Brett, any opinion on whether any of the current batch of pro coax driver can come close to the magical Tannoy experience? (Leaving aside things like the McCauleys which are expensive enough that you'd just get the Tannoys anyway). Pair of 10 inch Tannoy T145 Ascot Classic Tannoy Dual Concentric drivers Dating from the late 70’s, these classic Tannoy Dual Concentric monitors are in full and glorious working order, sounding just as they should - beautiful, balanced & effortless Cosmetic condition is excellent (see close-up pictures) and the cones and rubber surrounds are perfect.
