Tannoy SGM 15
Larger Than Life
The SUPER GOLD 15 speakers sport 15” woofers that go all in on epic and larger-than-life sound. They excel at any music style that requires massive and punchy lows, while at the same time keeping the critical midrange clear and detailed and the highs silky-smooth and delicious. Modern R’n’B, Hip Hop and certain styles of Electronica and Rock immediately comes to mind. But of course they are also happy to take on any other type of music and will play it back gracefully.
Listening for Hours on End
SUPER GOLD passes on the sound that the artist and producer intended without artefacts. The goal was to create a truly neutral soundstage with zero sonic coloration, and as a result these speakers are very non-fatiguing, which means that you can not only get a full and rich listening experience from almost anywhere in the room, but also that you can listen for hours on end without wearing out your ears.
