For Sale: Tannoy Active Monitors

Caryn Clark

Hi Everyone,

When I built my studio last summer, I bought two Tannoy Reveal Active 6.5" Nearfield Monitors. I hooked them up in August, and I turned them on a total of three times. Then when it came time to hook up the rest of the equipment I bought in the winter, I took the cables that were hooked into the monitors and used them elsewhere. So, since January, those monitors have been sitting there, not even plugged in. I don't think I'm gonna use them... I listen to everything thru my headphones.

So....... they're for sale!!

Two NEW Tannoy Reveal Active 6.5" Nearfield Monitors!!!!!!

Any takers? I don't have the original boxes, but I promised I'll pack 'em well for shipping.

I don't know what to ask for them, so PM with me an offer. I paid $600. Buyer will have to pay shipping. Come from a smoke-free, kid free, non-shedding dog home. The monitors have been in my studio the whole time.
