Introduction
Music is an art form that needs to be experienced in all its beauty, detail, and nuance without
the slightest colouration that can instantly detract from its purest essence. A truly great
loudspeaker design enables the speaker system to remove itself from the soundscape and
present the music in a manner that envelopes you in the same way as a live performance.
In the 1970s TANNOY created a range of monitors that forever changed the way studio engineers
and audiophiles alike chose to experience high quality audio. The TANNOY HPD Series quickly
became some of the most beloved Hi-Fi loudspeakers of all time.
More than just an homage its predecessor, the Legacy Series Dual Concentric Hi-Fi Loudspeaker
further elevates the TANNOY HPD heritage of outstandingly transparent performance via the
implementation of new, upscaled drivers and components – technology that was unavailable
at the time. Simply put, the Legacy Series delivers legendary HPD performance to a new
generation of music afi cionados.
