One listen and you'll know precisely what we're talking about. The Tannoy Mercury range offers a choice of loudspeakers for home cinema or hi-fi applications of truly outstanding performance and value.
Great dynamics and power handling are assured due to the 165mm (61/2") bass driver's substantial magnet assembly.

Its exemplary acoustic qualities also make it equally at home as part of either a budget or a high-end hi-fi.

This truly remarkable hi-fi speaker offers excellent value for money and also performs as a perfect surround speaker in more powerful home cinema systems.
The neat, compact design of the Mercury FR makes it the ideal solution not only for rear effects / surround applications but also as a front stereo pair where space is at an absolute premium. Pre-fitted to the rear panel is a fixing device that allows the speakers to be easily flush-mounted to a wall.
