No. I sold the Silver 15's years ago, sorry.

nhitran1601,
 You have a beautiful system yourself.
Your Tannoy's are gorgeous.
I had Tannoy GRF Professional cabinets built many years ago with Tannoy Silver 15's inside. The cabinets were built locally as I had the original Tannoy blueprints for these.

Hi nhitran 1601

21'8" feet from front wall to where my head would be in listening chair.

8 feet from front of speaker to front wall

4'6" feet from edge of cabinet closest to wall to side wall

Hi ! 
How about the distance from listener to front wall for your system.
Thank

Wow amazing looking system those speakers are awe inspiring! Any chance for a few more closeup pics? Not working up quite enough drool with the one shot from the back of the room. :D

Hi Doug,

 I'll have to have you over soon. Are you coming down for Axpona?
 Need a place to stay?

emailists,
 So looking forward to the EtherRegen, as the gentleman Wayne who did all the work to my DAC told me it is a must next component to get. He also told me what caps to throw in my crossover for the speakers which really elevated their play. His recommendations have never led me astray. Looking forward to the EtherRegen's arrival, hopefully sooner than later, I just missed the January cut off date for shipping as I ordered on Jan13th. I believe it will ship sometime this week, fingers crossed

Kudos on your system! Looking great! 

I have heard these speakers, and they're wonderful. Looks like you have yourself a great room, too! 

You ever want a pair of ears to assist you in enjoying, give a shout! You know where to find me...  :)

One of my customers had them built and his wife hated the look of them . I use to bring all my Eastern Electric gear over to his place for audition as he was always searching for the absolute best. Although he never bought any EE stuff we always had a great time together. He offered me these speakers just to take home to get them out of his house, he said I could listen to them for a year as he didn't care about payment right away, I took him up on his offer and they have been in my possession now for probably 8 years or so. I'm now retired and have gone thru a boatload of speakers over the years( Tannoy silver 15's, Altec's  Tannoy Churchills, Many a dual concentric, Khorns, trust me about 20 others also LOL) as I'm now 66.
 These are a pair of the best I've ever had.

Nice system - Im also a fan of TAD woofers from their own speakers.

Once you receive the EtherRegen, I’m afraid we may never hear from you again.

Love you custom JBLs. How did you calculate the cabinet and port size for the bass drivers?
