Tangent Acoustics SPL1 Speakers Matched Pair
Up for sale, we have a collectable, vintage matched pair of Tangent Acoustics SPL1 Speakers. These small, sealed, British monitors only measure 7" wide by 7 3/4" deep by 10 13/16 inch high, but they sound very nice, and we were very impressed. These use Audax drivers, and the Soft dome tweeter is excellent. The previous owner must have refoamed the woofers, as the foam looks new. The cabinets are in very good shape especially considering their age. There are some light scuffs and blemishes, and there is some peeling of the black leatherette on the edges of the back panel of the speaker. Overall they present themselves extremely well, and any collector would be proud to own them. See pictures for further details.
These were purchased in a collection from a gentleman that passed away. He was an audio enthusiast/hobbyist, and he was into low wattage amps, and loved small speakers, particularly British speakers. We obtained these, a set of celestion sl6's, a pair of Rogers LS1, a pair of Burhoe Crimson, and a custom pair of small bookshelf speakers. In our shop, we fell in love with each pair.
We don't have the original box for the speakers, but we take packaging and shipping seriously. We spare no expense and use heavy duty boxes, several inches of polyethylene foam on all sides of the speakers, and use water activated, fiber reinforced tape on all seams.
