Somebody “manuelgarcia66” wrote in the Yahoo Tannoy Group. I think it was the ONLY reply on SUBJECT among others that proposed that I was in ignorant troll who should not bother the forum:

"Iґve come to tannoys from different speakers-enclosures: Merlin, Quad, ESL, Magnepan, Coincident, Audio Note, etc
Each speaker-manufacturer-fashion has its owen flavour and its own  compromises

Modern fashion is highly resolving speakers, flat response, extension on both ends, etc. and I went that way.

My point on this changed when I bought a pair of Audio Note AN-Es. These speakers are resonant on the mid-upper bass Also they must be placed on the corners, or they sound dead and dull. They use the reverberant moods of the room to create a lively sound, loading it. You notice it specially in the left keys of the piano, acoustic double bass, cello, even in "thick" strings of the violin

The resonant way sure makes the speaker less accurate in the modern sense, but also more enjoyable for me
After all, my home is not a studio, I just listen to music for simple pleasure

I understand the point of the speaker (and the room interactions) as a musical instrument, more than another link in the chain If you consider the software as the player, electronics are the strings and the speaker-room is the soundboard

By the way, I like and love all kind of music, but I tend to choose the system listening to classical, small and big scale.
