First Day Here!
« on: 5 Feb 2024, 07:08 pm »
Hi to all at Audio Circle!

My name is Steven and been a music lover for over 25 years. At this time, almost done completing the “final” system into the attic of our house. The gear is all here, just finishing the attic insulation before hauling it all up.

Favourite music genres are reggae of the 70s and 80s, and jazz of the 60s. Current artist I’m really into is Colter Wall.

My main interests for joining Audio Circle is to converse with the members about refurbishing/tweaking/going active the Tannoy monitors (SGM-15B), and to sort out a dysfunctional Bryston BDP-1 unit. The system today contains:

Analog Source: Technics SL1200, Audiomods arm
Cartridges: Grado Gold, Dynavextor 10x5 and 20xL, vdH Colibri
Phono: Vacuum State JLTI
Digital Source 1: Yamaha CDC-685
Digital Source 2: Bryston BDP-1
DAC: Metrum Onyx
Pre: Music First Audio Classic Silver
Amp: MC2 Audio MC750
Speakers: Tannoy SGM-15B

Welcome!

Have always enjoyed Tannoys at shows and like the coaxial concept, but confused.  What exactly do you mean by "going active" with the SGM 15s? 

I fear the acoustics of any attic would be a disappointment.  Could you describe the size/shape/finishes?
