Description from the seller

Tannoy Venus MK II V30 loudspeakers

In nette staat

Zie foto's voor een duidelijk beeld


A vintage HiFi collectors item set from Tannoy, type: Venus MKII V30, top-class speakers. Made from walnut wood. The Venus MKII V30 are very rarely offered. This is, by the way, the first time Catawiki has auctioned this model.

The Venus was part of the Planet series from the mid-1980s, which also included the very successful Mercury. Other models were Saturn and Jupiter.

The Venus was highly regarded at the time and had a real wood veneer (walnut), a time-aligned crossover, and a woofer made of transparent plastic. I can’t really add much more, except that they have a warm, full sound with good bass response and are pleasant to listen to and suitable for various music genres. In short, "A rare and sought-after model that rarely comes to market."
