the Mercury is good however if you can source out a Revolution Model then that is the one for keeps.

Mercury M2 is an old model, older than the Fusion 2 which replaced it back in 2008. Unless new old stock siya, you can possibly bargain for a lower price.

Agree with the Revolution series. . .

patay tayo nito active na naman ang Tannoy sa market.  i have a lot of good memories with Tannoy.

 - my first HT was the Mercury MX series (in davao 2006)
 - my first 2 channel set-up was tannoy fusion 3 mated with SR Heac-07 (in davao 2008)
 - my 2nd HT was tannoy Fusion series (in QC 2010)
 - bought a second pair of F3 in 2010 sold it in 2011 (in QC), the buyer auditioned it and nang hinayang ako, nakakamis yung tunog.
 - right now i still have the fusion series (3,2 and C) for my HT
 - trying PSB imagine b for my 2 channel set-up. sabi ng anak ko kagabi, parang Tannoy yung tumutunog (patay)

well, that's life!

just sharing, enjoy the rest of your day.   O0

I also have the M2 which I acquired in Singapore way back in 1998 pa pala ito. Still sounds great (it's in my mom's house now) and can go head to head with my Dynaudio Audience 52's and Focal Chorus 806V. Pair it well with powerful amps though and good, revealing source like a good quality CD player. This speakers helped me get started on the hi-fi route and never ceased to amaze me. It was the award-winning speakers (in What Hi-Fi) during its time.

I checked out the mercury v1 and the center, vc. They sound great. I want to put these in my living room for secondary setup. I'm  still looking around for other brands that are in these price range, but so far these tannoys sound really good for me.

I have the Tannoy Mercury F1 bookshelf- paired alternately with a NAD integrated amp. and a Luxman integrated amp.

Very engaging speakers. Beautiful sound. From what I recall, they were rated "5 stars" by What Hi-Fi magazine circa 2007-2009, or thereabouts.

I passed by 5th Avenue, Gloriettta 5, and was surprised to see the row of Tannoy speakers which they now carry, in addition to their staple Mordant Short line-up. The Tannoys now come in new designs. The Revolution series would be a best bet, long-term.

thanks
