“Everything as advertised. The sound is true, full bodied, clear as if the musician is in the room. Speakers really work well and look like furniture. Glad I decided on Tannoy!!! Will keep them forever!”

“As usual, fantastic service from Upscale Audio! Connected the Turnberrys to a PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Integrated (stock EL34/12AU7) to replace a pair of well known, horn-loaded speakers. I am far from being an expert, so fancy terms are not in my arsenal. To be blunt: sitting in the optimum listening position, with my eyes closed, the combination of PrimaLuna and the horn-loaded speakers allowed me to hear Diana Krall. When I closed my eyes with PrimaLuna and Tannoy, it was no longer a recording; Diana Krall was now in the room with me for a private concert. The question is, do want to listen to music, or experience it? For those who wish to experience music, the choice is Tannoy. Highly recommended.”

“The best way I can describe the sound of the Turnberry GR's is REAL, not clinical and not fatiguing at all. Be patient, these need some time to run in to sound their best. I'm approaching the 200 hr. mark and they have really opened up and sound beautiful. The bass is so good that I have removed the dual subs from my system. I am noticing that I smile to myself when listening to music I have been familiar with for years. Well recorded drums sound like real drums that are in the room with you. Listen to Two Suns In The Sunset from Pink Floyd's Final Cut album. When the drums kick in you either get very realistic sounding drums or bloated, muddy drums or drums that sound thin with no oomph. The Turnberry's give you the former, I get a grin every time I hear it. Vocals are amazing, both male and female. I am getting zero sibilance from the tweeter, very nice highs. My room is well damped/treated so I found that I needed less toe-in than recommended. Absolutely no problem driving these with my PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP tube integrated in triode mode at 40 wpc. Build quality is just amazing! These look and feel like heirloom quality fine furniture pieces. When I talked to Kevin, I was inquiring about a different brand loudspeaker that cost more than the Turnberry's. Kevin questioned the sound I was looking to achieve and suggested the Tannoy's. I am so glad I listened to him, thank you Kevin!!”
