We'll have both acrylic and birch-ply Cubes at the North West Audio Show, in June (and the UK Audio Show in October, in Daventry).TheMarlin wrote: ↑Sun Mar 06, 2022 10:01 am I do like a Tannoy Dual Concentric speaker.
Close in sound to a Quad 57, but without unwieldy size.
I had 12” Monitor Golds back in my the 90’s. Really lovely sound. A friend had 15” Tannoys, sounded fabulous.
Also has NS1000M’s, got a bit fatiguing after a while. But excellent details for short burst listing.
I’ve only ever tried the Cubettes, they didn’t work in my Hifi room, would like to hear the big ones at some point.

Re: Speakers
When Tom and I took on NVA, there was no stock of cabinets or drivers left. We decided it was the ideal time to experiment with new cabinet materials and find a mid / bass driver that didn't need to be doped by hand. Covid delayed progress but we now have the new driver and a prototype set in birch ply. Both versions will be at the North West Audio show in June.dazed_and_confused wrote: ↑Sun Mar 06, 2022 8:58 pmInteresting design. I don’t see them at the NVA website, are they discontinued?
