Tannoy Glenair driver 3818

Tannoy 3818 Driver

I have heard and owned many Tannoy Loudspeakers during my life. And after hearing a pair of Tannoy Glenair speakers, located in an audio shop in Vilnius, Lithuania, I wanted the same driver for testing my audiophile cables.

The year was 2010 and it took me about five months before I finally found a driver for sale from a company in London. And I considered myself very fortunate to have found it as it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Review

You can read this review from '6 moons' and then you will understand how good I was feeling and the thought of finding a 3818 driver.

Result

The result was I got what I wanted and mounted the driver in a 300 lt. cabinet. Performance was truly outstanding and when friends heard what I had, it was hard to believe how the bass seemed to go deeper then the ground the cabinet was sitting on. The detail was just spectacular and transparency on another level. The driver works and performs exactly as it did when I bought it 15 years ago and it will give you total enjoyment ND satisfaction for many years to com.

The driver will be double boxed and bubble wrapped and sent with other Fedex of DPD, depending upon your location.
