    I bought a Marantz PM7001 and Tannoy F1 custom speakers from yourselves about 10 years ago and I'm looking to add a second pair of speakers.
    The F1 Customs are no longer made and I'm not sure what set to buy for my set up.

    I need them to put out the same volume as the F1 customs and not be too dissimilar in quality. The F1s are 8 ohms and around 100w rating.
    There are the most recent Tannoy ones the ECLIPSE ONEs or the MORDAUNT SHORT M20s I've also been considering. Which would you recommend, or is there something else I should consider?


    Thanks.

    Hi Eyerer.

    Thanks for coming back to us.

    The Eclipse one's sound fine and have been very popular at their price point.

    How about the Q Acoustics 3010 priced at £99.00 which are great little speakers

    Or the Award winning Wharfedale Diamond 220 priced at £119.00

    There is also the NEW Tannoy Mercury 7.1 which have just arrived in a also sound very good for the money. Priced at £179.00
