The Tannoy SGM 10 standmount speakers have 10” woofers that deliver that amazing sweet spot in between rich lows and tight and fast-responding mids and highs. They are the perfect companion when listening to music with fast transients and plenty of attack. For instance, Funk, Electronica, World Music and Contemporary Jazz comes to mind. That said, they are perfectly capable of giving you the chills when listening to Classical Music, Rock, Pop or any other music genre.
With Tannoy’s Dual Concentric design, the woofer and tweeter are literally merged together, which positions them on the exact same axis, giving you best-in-class phase coherence. Since the sound is coming from the same point, it is a true point-source imaging scenario, and adding to that a spherical wave front that ensures an extremely even dispersion both vertically and horizontally, the Super Gold’s off-axis performance is breath-taking.
But what is the benefit when listening? You simply get a very wide and true sweet-spot, which means that you don’t have to sit dead-centre in front of the speakers to enjoy every single, subtle detail in the music. You can move around, or when you have company, everyone can enjoy listening even if they are not directly in front of the speakers.
