Tannoy Canterbury GR
 
After months of researching, looking and listening to an impressive range of speakers, one grabbed me like no other. All were amazing in their own way and beautifully built but the Tannoy Canterbury GR was magical, seductive and real-life to the point that I couldn't stop listening. During the last audition of tapping my foot so much that my ankle was tired, I knew the Canterbury GR was the one for my den. The delivery truck arrived yesterday.

More soon.

Terry, congrats!
Very nice speakers to hear... and to see!

Terry.......This is exciting.

Congratulations! I'm looking forward to hearing about your initial impressions and how they sound after break-in. The throwback look is awesome - like Tesla himself had a hand in the design.

Terry - You're really going to like them. I purchased a pair a few months ago. They're not fussy when it comes to placement, thanks to the front porting. Best wishes.

Sweet! I remember how excited I was to receive my (then) brand new Canterbury SE back in 2012. Still proudly rockin' em today. Though I probably should've waited for the GR series, lol!

Have to admit I was a bit shocked how much I had to re-voice my system coming from the Kensington SE (from a tipped-up to a tipped-down FR). Hopefully your transition is a smooth one. Fantastic speaker for a music-lover audiophile.

Thank you, gentlemen. I turned the system on early this morning to begin accumulating hours and they have been getting better with each hour. I will post my initial impressions and some more photos soon.

Congrats Terry -- fantastic speakers. Enjoy and you'll always remember the this delivery/and unboxing.

Bob

P.S. I didn't realize Dan (jdandy) delivers speakers.:D

Bob.......Funny. That delivery guy does sort of look like me, although a bit younger.
