Offered is „Canterbury SE with Fyne Supertrax in walnut.“ by Tannoy as second-hand device from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 5712206492 ends on 17.12.2026 at 10:05 o'clock.
The Canterbury SE is a Prestige-series heavyweight, built around Tannoy’s highly regarded 15-inch Dual Concentric driver. At €11,500, this is a fair market price: it exactly matches the median of four recent comparable listings, while sitting comfortably between the €11,465 lower quartile and €11,625 upper quartile. It is not a bargain, but neither is it stretched.
The attraction is its unusually dynamic, spacious presentation, broad point-source dispersion, and 96 dB sensitivity, which makes it an especially versatile partner for valve amplifiers and lower-powered designs. The large cabinet delivers authoritative, controlled bass, while the Alcomax 3 motor and adjustable treble/port arrangements allow useful room and system tuning. At this price, confirm both drivers are clean and even, check the crossover controls and terminals, and verify the original grilles and accessories are included; otherwise, this looks like a solid, properly positioned 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.
