Royd Minstrel SE - Is it better than the original Minstrel?

Since there's very little information on the Royd Minstrels and Minstrel SEs online, I wanted to add my two cents on them. So, in addition to my previous video about the original Minstrels, I've made this video about the Special Editions, and how they compare. I hope you find it useful and/or entertaining.

The long and the short of it:
The original speakers are splashy and light-and-lively, with great imaging. The SEs also have great imaging, but by contrast are reigned in, tightly knit, and more robust.

I'll likely do that at some point. Hopefully people will get some idea of their differences relative to each other (obviously we can't judge ultimate fidelity through YT, but maybe their comparative differences will be apparent).

They're difficult to find, but they're out there somewhere. Best of luck!

Nice looking speaker and I like the way they are projected slightly upward. I've never heard of these. Are they are still made?

Are they still made? Yes and no. Royd closed shop in the early 2000s, and Joe Ackroyd passed away. Another company bought the name, and is making speakers of a similar size and shape, but they've been met with lukewarm reviews thus far. Yeah, these are real beauties. They're really small with a great finish, so they look good in almost any room - like nice furniture. I have another video that gives a bit more background on the Royd Minstrels. Here it is, if you're interested: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OjpWlxfGmGI.htmlsi=AkNoivxAzQ803u71

Oh, that sucks! I feel your pain. Unfortunately, I have no idea where to source replacement drivers... It'll probably quite difficult to find. You may want to join the Royd group on Facebook and ask those people... You may get lucky that way. Sorry I can't help any more than this. These speakers are really good, so definitely worth looking for a replacement tweeter. Best of luck to you in your search!

BTW - have you pulled the tweeter out to see exactly what model it is? Who knows! Maybe the tweeter is available somewhere after all, and not like their proprietary main drivers.

tweeter for the Minstrels. I'm not sure if it's the same, but it might be. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/196471284429?hash=item2dbe99e2cd%3Ag%3AkewAAOSwN0Jmfqa0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5336828753&customid=Royd&toolid=10049
