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.
