In Reply to: Altec 604-8G versus Tannoy 15" Golds posted by gopies on August 10, 2007 at 16:32:29:
I just sold my coveted GRF's and have gone the Altec route. Looks like your boxes are similar to a GRF. Anyhow, the Altec sound is more upfront/dynamic with bigger dynamics to the vocal/ swings. The Tannoy sound is more laid back and extremely hard to beat on vocals. If you want a more concert live type speaker, go Altec. If you want a pleasurable and smooth speaker, go Tannoy. Either way, you really can't lose. You could also drop some JBL drivers down low, and say a 175/185/375 up top. Same with Altec, driver down low and horns on top.
