Tannoy d500 series 2 in uitstekende staat. Algemeen : 3 weg vloerstaande luidspreker met dual concentric techniek : de tannoy d500 series 2 is een fraaie kolomluidspreker met als basis de beroemde dua
€1,050 is a fair-to-good ask for these, not a steal and not crazy either. The only hard anchor here is the original price of about €1,200 per speaker, which puts the pair well above entry-level vintage money, so €1,050 for a used set looks broadly in line if they’re complete and working properly.
What makes them worth chasing is the Dual Concentric presentation: coherent imaging, strong midrange presence, and that easy, box-filling scale Tannoy fans buy them for. They’re also a genuinely respected 1990s floorstander, so if the cabinets are clean and the drivers are original, there’s real enthusiast value here. I’d mainly want confirmation on driver condition, crossover health, and whether any grilles/spikes/jumpers are missing, because those details matter more than cosmetic age on this model.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Tannoy traces its origins to 1926 in London, where Yorkshire-born engineer Guy R. Fountain established the Tulsemere Manufacturing Company in a modest garage. Initially focused on battery chargers and rectifiers for early radio sets, the brand name Tannoy emerged in 1928 as a contraction of "tantalum alloy," the key materials in its innovative electrolytic rectifiers. This British pioneer quickly pivoted to loudspeakers, cementing a heritage of audio innovation that spans nearly a century, including a relocation to Coatbridge, Scotland, in the 1970s.
The company specializes in loudspeakers, renowned for its revolutionary Dual Concentric driver introduced in 1947 at the London Radio Show, which transformed studio monitoring and home audio. Tannoy's portfolio centers on high-quality speakers—ranging from bookshelf and floorstanding models to the iconic Prestige series—alongside public address systems. While historically versatile in professional sound, its modern emphasis remains on hi-fi stereo and home cinema speakers, leveraging decades of driver technology expertise rather than diversifying into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Tannoy holds a revered position as one of the world's oldest loudspeaker manufacturers, blending high-end prestige with vintage appeal for discerning collectors and audiophiles. Its studio-grade monitors and meticulously crafted cabinets, often produced by specialists like Poland's Diora, earn consistent praise from hi-fi critics for exceptional clarity and dynamics. Now under the Music Tribe group, Tannoy endures as a benchmark for authentic British sound reproduction, appealing to knowledgeable buyers seeking timeless performance over fleeting trends.
