Identify this Tannoy driver

phn · 16th March 2006, 01:24 PM

I can buy this, two of them. The seller says they are from the Berkeley. I will get to see the speakers in person before I buy them, so I'm not going to argue. But as far as I can tell, this is no HPD-385 (no foam rubber surrounding), which I assume came with the Berkeley. It's not that I'm complaining. The foam rubber is what I don't like about the HPD-385, even though it might in fact be the better driver.

Any idea?

Looks lake a Monitor Gold. Do you have a pic of the magnet cover?

Does the rear of the cone have ribs? If not, it's certainly not an HPD.

Thanks for the replies.

No, haven't seen the backs. I suspect it's gold. Gold or red and I'm happy. HOW happy I am comes down to the price. I guess I was afraid it would be some driver I haven't heard about. These three are pretty much all I know about Tannoy.
