Offered is „DU386 new surround original crossover“ 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 2119508241 ends on 21.10.2026 at 20:55 o'clock.
A €1,899 ask is fair to slightly strong, not a bargain, versus what these vintage Tannoy coaxials usually trade for; the model family has enough collector pull that working, presentable pairs can sit in the low-to-mid €2,000s, with especially clean examples pushing higher, so this is in the right neighborhood rather than a steal.
That said, the appeal here is the classic Tannoy draw: big, efficient, coherent point-source presentation with strong scale and easy driveability, which is exactly why people keep chasing them. If the drivers are original, the crossovers are healthy, and the cabinets are genuinely “good” rather than merely presentable, it’s a worthwhile buy for someone who wants the Tannoy experience without paying top-shelf money; just verify originality and any service history before committing.

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.
