Exceptional bass even without a subwoofer, brilliant separation, great treble and mid-range

Costly

Made for the true audio enthusiast, Tannoy's Revolution Signature DC6 speakers don't come cheaply, but they offer absolutely phenomenal sound quality that has to be heard to be believed.

Solid, purposeful build and style ; exciting, spacious and balanced sound

Other floorstanders sound a little richer and fuller

Best floorstander £700-£1500, Awards 2011. As complete a package as you’re likely to see for under £1000

Beautiful overall tonal balance ; Fine, deep bass

Could have been more time-coherent with a sweeter top end

Deep bass ; Stylish and high-quality finish ; Good detail

Can sound a bit too aggressive when played loud

This compact floorstander has a lovely wood finish and high-class drive units. The bass is deep and even and the midband gives good detail at low levels, but the sound does tend to get edgy when pushed

Neat and attractively shaped enclosure gives impressive freedom from boxiness even when close-to-the-wall ; Lively, even bass and fine coherence and delicacy through the voice band

Lacks some energy and warmth through the upper bass and lower midband, so overall balance is a little cool

An attractively styled standmount that works very well with close-to-wall reinforcement. Has a lively, even bass underpinning a smooth and coherent if slightly over-projected upper mid and presence. Lacks warmth, but imaging is stable

Excellent build quality ; impressive bass weight and extension ; authoritative sound

Hint of coarseness in treble - be careful when partnering with electronics

Attractive finish ; easy to level and adjust spikes ; enthusiastic delivery ; focus and precise-sounding ; excellent detail and dynamics

The speaker cable terminals could be easier to read ; Newer rivals offer more detail, greater scale and refinement

The Awards we gave them show we really liked the DC6T SEs first time out – and we still do.

For music lovers that listen to a wide selection of genres, these could very well be your speakers. It didn’t matter if I listened to mainstream hip-hop, pop like Chromeo or Two Door Cinema Club, heavy electronic like Noisia, or well recorded acoustic...

Beautiful overall tonal balance with fine, deep bass

Could have been more time-coherent with a sweeter top end

Good looking and compact floorstander has a beautifully judged overall balance

Analytical and comfortable with a broad range of music. Creates a solid sound stage. Compact design works well

A tiny extra touch of midrange warmth wouldn't hurt
