Καλά τα γράφουμε στην τελευταία σελίδα του ήχου που κυκλοφορεί.
Οι επιστροφές θρύλων συνεχίζονται. Ιστορικά ηχεία ξανα-κατασκευάζονται και κυκλφορούν. Το έκανε η JBL, η Klipsch, η RAM, η Yamaha… το κάνει τώρα και η Tannoy. Τελικά δεν επέστρεψε μόνο το βινύλιο, αλλά και τα… παλιά ηχεία.
H Τannoy ξανακυκλοφορεί την θρυλική της σειρά Eaton που κυριαρχούσε με τα μόνιτορ της την δεκαετία του ’70, με τη βοήθεια του οποίου είχαν γίνει πολλές ηχογραφήσεις την εποχή εκείνη. Βασικό της μοντέλο της Legacy Series της Tannoy είναι το Eaton, ένα ηχείο βάση με ομοκεντρικό μεγάφωνο δέκα ιστών.
Η Τannoy ονομάζει το νέο Eaton κλώνο του παλιού μοντέλο, χρησιμοποιώντας νέας υλικά αλλά διατηρώντας την ίδια ηχητική συμπεριφορά. Κάθε καμπίνα είναι χειροποίητη και φτιαγμένη στο εργοστάσιο της Tannoy στη Σκωτία, από υψηλής πυκνότητας υλικό και έχει στη βάση της ελαστικό πάχους 12 εκατοστών για σταθερότητα.
Το διπλό 10 ιντσών ομοκεντρικό μεγάφωνο του Eaton έχει απίστευτα δυναμικά και καθόλου χρωματισμούς, ενώ αντέχει ισχύ έως και 400W. To Εaton έχει ξεχωριστούς κλάδους για τις υψηλές και χαμηλές συχνότητες, υπάρχει στη πρόσοψη μια επίχρυση επιφάνεια για ρυθμίσεις LF και HF, ενώ οι ακροδέκτες στο πίσω μέρος πέντε και είναι της WBT.
Πρόκειται για ηχείο 89dB, 8Ω με βάρος 20 κιλά. Η τιμή του λίγο υψηλότερη από 5.000 ευρώ.
Εκτός από το Eaton η Tannoy, κυκλοφορεί ακόμη, τα θρυλικά Arden και Cheviot.

LEGACY EATON
Music is an art form that needs to be experienced in all its beauty, detail, and nuance without the 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 a homage to its predecessor, the Legacy Series EATON Book-Shelf 10" Dual Concentric Hi Fi Loudspeaker further elevates the TANNOY HPD heritage of outstandingly transparent performance with the implementation of new, upscaled drivers and components – technology that was unavailable at the time. Simply put, EATON delivers legendary HPD performance to a new generation of music aficionados.
Faithful to the Original
Every design element crucial to EATON's breathtaking dynamic range, clarity of sound and classic look has been faithfully preserved. Much more than just a clone of the original, this new version of the classic benefits greatly from the evolution of driver and electronic component technology. In keeping with the TANNOY mode of excellence, each EATON loudspeaker cabinet is completely handcrafted by our highly skilled team at our Coatbridge, Scotland workshop.
Studio Quality Audio In Your Home
The Dual Concentric Driver used in EATON provides class-leading coherence and pointsource imaging for that highly sought after truly natural sound. EATON's 400-Watt 10" dual driver delivers breathtaking dynamics, powerful transient response and unparalleled realism across a wide frequency range with an almost total lack of colouration. Many of the world’s greatest hits have been recorded and mixed using TANNOY studio monitors, and listening to these speakers is like having the artist right there in your living room. Breathtaking yesterday; equally breathtaking today...
Outstanding Components are just the Starting Point
It takes a lot more than quality materials and hand-selected drivers to build a great loudspeaker; it takes engineering experience with a deep understanding of acoustics, dedicated craftsmanship, inspiration, and a healthy dose of imagination. For example, the crossover network employed in the EATON features 2 independent channels that have been skillfully designed to bring out the best of the separate LF and HF sections of the Dual Concentric driver – ensuring a truly natural sound. And since loudspeakers actually perform their work in your living space, instead of an anechoic chamber, a front mounted 2 band energy control panel allows you to selectively boost or cut the lows and/or highs to fit your room or personal taste. EATON also has heavy duty 24 carat multi-layer gold plated WBT* bi-wireable binding posts to provide optimal signal transmission and integrity, plus a fifth binding post to reduce RF interference and improved mid range clarity.
EATON Enclosure
The enclosure is made following the original EATON design, but benefits from new high density materials that weren't available back in the 1970s. The resulting cabinet provides extreme rigidity to control low frequency performance, and boasts extensive bracing incorporating DMT (Differential Materials Technology) for proper driver coupling. 12 mm rubber pads on the base of the enclosure provide added stability, and help to dissipate unwanted energy that might otherwise detract from EATON's pristine performance.
The Legacy Lives On
TANNOY's long and storied legacy lives on in the new EATON Book-Shelf 10" Dual Concentric Hi Fi Loudspeaker; a legacy that has endured the test of time and adapted with the evolution of technology. Whilst the bass is quite deep for the size of the EATON enclosure relative to the driver size, the speed and leading impulse is exciting and rewarding. Vocals are a little forward, as with many monitoring speakers, allowing the nuances of the voices to be fully appreciated. The smooth transitions to the HF device and the high sensitivity of the horn loaded dual concentric provide amazing clarity with dynamic transient response. Every EATON includes an ‘owner’s care package’ as well as a Birth Certificate heralding its authenticity. EATON simply has to be experienced...
