    Picked up a pair of Tannoy Caernarvons

    Picked up a set of these Caernarvons from a buddy. They have been sitting a while and the cabinets could use some love, but the drivers are intact and sound quite nice. Currently powering them with a Toshiba SA 7150 receiver. Grilles are in great shape. Will be refinishing the cabinets soon...

    I live in Ottawa and someone is selling the Tannoy Oxford Gold speakers without grills for $250. I noticed the centers of the woofers are pushed in. Person said he was able to fix one with a vacuum? Worth it?? Can I find grills for these anywhere? I attached a pic of how they look before he...

    MIT Universal Terminator Module T-4 - What is this thing?

    A bit of googling, but still no good information. What is this thing? There was one of these stuck on to the back of each of the very nice ProAc speakers I recently picked up. I immediately removed them, thinking it's a gimmicky or otherwise useless device. Anyone know what it is, what it does...

    One flaccid sounding Rogers LS7 speaker

    Hi folks. I'm having some trouble with a nice pair of Rogers LS7s, a two way design. One speaker sounds great but the other is weak. It suffers from sightly lower volume overall, and from a whooshing sound when ear is next to tweeter, but no music signal coming through the tweeter. The musical...
