I do not care for the more recent G12H30 55Hz speakers. Way too boomy with a brittle top end for my taste. YMMV.
I agree - and I think those ones are made in China, not England :(

The 75Hz anniversary series is made in China.. crap speakers.
The 55Hz heritage is UK made. They are really good though.. people who own them claim they're the closest recent production celestion compared to the vintage G12h30
I don't know, but I'm buying one 2nd hand this week
