Speaker death!

[admin_exported]

My beloved Tannoy 632 speakers died (I over drove them and the coil has fused... [:-$]).

I havn't really followed the HiFi state of the art for over 10 years, and would like some advice. I have a Technics SU-A707 amp and SL-PD887 CD Changer. I need to replace the speakers but I have no idea what would be a good match for the amp.

Originally I tried some speakers out with the Amp (the original amp was stolen some years back) in a hi fi shop, would I be best taking my system to a hi fi shop to audition some speakers or can you guys recommend some good candidates?

I would like to spend up to £300.

Cheers!

I remember blowing up one of my Mum's Dual speakers as a teenager by playing the Sex Pistols as loud as I could - smoke actually came out of the speaker. It was very exciting and I reckon the speaker had a good death... (can't recall my Mum being too thrilled though)

They got punk'd !

I'm ashamed to say despite all the metal I play it was Drum n Bass that killed mine. I was drunk, the speaker death was some kind of Karma and probably quite timely.
