Silver Member Username: ExerciseguyBrooklyn, NY USA Post Number: 185 Registered: Oct-04 | I've come across an abandoned pair of Tannoy Reveal 6 monitors in a local electronic repair shop. They are perfect & can be had for a song. Does anyone have any experience with these speakers? http://www.tannoy.com/Reveal6 |

If they go for a song, may be something minor, or replacement parts are inexpensive. Either way, the dealer is probably just re-couping his(her) outlay and labour for the fix, and the owner no-showed. For a song, why not, try with your Nad and Marantz. |
