I made a bit of extra cash this week, being a "Special Skills" extra in a movie shoot, and overdubbing some viola on a pop album my friend is producing.
To celebrate, I bought a pair of Tannoy 609s. I paid more than I usually would, $200, I guess because of the extra income. They include the stands.
I'm playing them through an old Electrohome SET tube receiver, and they sound really good. Fairly deep bass, and very nice treble from what look like brass horns in the center of the woofers.
I've filled the stands with kitty litter by unscrewing the top mounting plate. And I have read that the speakers themselves can be filled. But I can't figure out how to fill them. The "glass" top seems like it might be able to be pried off, but using a screwdriver to pry will cause damage.
The bottom speaker cover has three holes, with what look like three plastic screw covers, set in fairly deep, so that I can't figure out how to get them off to see if screws are accessible under there.
Does anyone know if they can indeed be filled? Does anyone have a users manual?
