Tannoy Eaton HPD295A Bookshelf Loudspeakers After Tannoys with that sweet coaxial sound that aren't the size of a bar fridge? Look no further as these Tannoy Eatons could be gracing your listening room and all you have to do is drive to Flinders View with cash....... Cabinets are very solid and a re-oil and wax would tart them up otherwise you can enjoy that vintage patina. A few little chips but overall the cabinets are in really good nick as are the grilles. The bad.......when re-foaming the speakers the tech dropped the freshly glued dust cap onto the cone. This is a purely cosmetic blemi
Condition is unknown, but at A$1,500 this lands well below the A$1,829 25th percentile for recent comparable listings and far under the A$2,886 median, so it reads as a strong buy if the cabinets, drivers, and surrounds are all healthy. For a Tannoy Eaton, that’s attractive pricing rather than a stretch.
These are well-liked for their natural midrange, easy musicality, and coherent imaging, with the Eaton’s dual-concentric approach giving a very “point source” presentation that many listeners love. At this level, the main thing to check is basic driver condition, any cone/surround wear, and whether the pair is matched and complete; if they’re clean and original, this is a good opportunity.
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.
