Hi! Does anyone have experience with these monitor-speakers? Peter
Not the brightest monitors out there, I'd say... I find them a touch lacking in the higher octaves. Apart from that, they sound good. Bass is fine, considering the size, localization is fine, too.... I'd personally tend to use them as unobtrusive living-room speakers rather than as monitors. Or at least only as a second opinion. Daniel
If you are looking for a modern (slighlty brighter) mix, that might be just the thing. If you also check your mix in the cans, you will know right away if you have it too bright. Same with the bass. If your monitors have more bass than the 6.5's, your mix will lack in bass. They are my main mixing speakers with many others for second opinions. I think they are as good as any for monitors on a budget. Of course I wouldn't master on them. And I don't like them as living room speakers, though I have used them as surround speakers in a pinch. -Rob
I have three sets and have used them since they were first released. Virtually everything I have mixed in a variety of studios for the past 7 or 8 years has been mixed almost solely on Tannoy 6.5 or 6.5 mkII. People around here who have received copies of some of my work or bought this groups compilation CDs, have heard the results. I believe they are one of the finest 6" monitors ever made. The imaging is wide and the low frequency response is far better than advertised... high end is very detailed and they are not at all hyped in the mids. Clients have sat beside me time and time again and confused this little speaker with the main CR monitor system. They definitely get my thumbs-up.

I found them to be my choice in one room, over ns10 and some JBL NFM's he had. Only thing I liked better was listening on the 811's he had soffit mounted. In another friend's room he had the small Alesis as well as the TAnnoys and my choice was definitely the TAnnoys. rEgards, Richard Webb Electric Spider Productions REplace anything before the @ symbol with elspider for real email --
