Pair MT/Musical Technology Kestrel British Floor Standing High End Hifi Speakers
Must be collected in person from Farnham, Surrey. Please note that I only accept cash for collected items. Can show working.
These Kestrels were one of the best performing speakers under 500 in the mid 1990s. Excellent sound, fast and neutral mids, finely detailed top end and tuneful bass. They have a metal cone bass driver which is light and stiff and integrates naturally with the metal dome tweeter. They use the well regarded Vifa D25AG tweeter, also used in speakers like the PMC TB1. The triangle shaped cabinets are inherently stronger than a square enclosure, sounds less less boxy with lower coloration and tighter bass.
They come with an original spec sheet for the MT range. I’ve also owned the Harriers which are really like a larger version of the Kestrels. This quote from audio-forums sums up the Kestrels well: “I used to work as an acoustics engineer (transducer designer) with clive gibson for a few years, so know the speaker range quite well. they are very underrated. and can sound exceptional. especially the kestrel, which as long as your listening room isn’t large can sound spectacular with good partnering equipment.”
They are in very good condition. Some minor marks on the cabinets and a small stain on one of the grilles. There are some rust spots on the 5mm thick steel base plates, these could be unbolted and repainted to make perfect. The drive units are in perfect condition and perfect working order. Very clean audio, no distortion. No dents in the domes or cones. Size approx 81cm high.
