Further information:

For SALE here is the result of a project which took many years to complete with the result, coupled with the right amplifier(s), these speakers provide sound dreams are made of.

Cost of producing these highly sensitive and fine speakers was in excess of $30,000.00


THE DRIVERS:
two 15" Monitor RED Dual Concentric speakers (16 Ohm Impedance) with close serial numbers and in excellent condition, both operationally and cosmetically - Almost unobtainable in today's Vintage HIFI market.
Silver Duelund Wiring was used from the connections of the HF and LF drivers to the binding posts of the external crossovers.


THE CROSSOVERS:
Connex Binding posts were used for the external crossovers having used the ‘bypass’ method, thus binding posts are not part of the circuit.
All Inductors, Capacitors and Resistors are from the DUELUND Range.
For the HF and LF circuits PIO CAST Copper Inductors, capacitors with silver resistors were used.
For the parallel running Notch Filter in the HF Circuit, the capacitor from the DUELUND RS range was used with a WPIO Inductor.
With Silver wiring in the HF circuits and copper wires in the LF circuit.


THE CABINETS:
Custom made of 25mm solid Jarrah Wood - as per Tannoy’s GRF-R plans, including the fitting of the very important 'Teardrop' at the beginning of the horn chamber to avoid the mixing of High and Low frequencies through the horn chambers.
The rear removeable panels had been strengthened/dampened with 40mm deep frameworks, the void spaces filled with sand and 2x 25mm solid Jarrah panels on each side to avoid mechanical vibrations and for a tight and beautiful bass.


THE SPEAKERS PLATFORMS:
Made from 40mm Perspex for the speaker cabinets to sit on, custom made solid Brass Spikes connect the 40mm Perspex to the floor.


I live in Perth and local pickup is preferred, but can ship Australia or worldwide at buyers cost.
