You can now find another review of the Royd Sorcerers, from What Hi-Fi? July 1998. It features the Sorcerers in a group test of eight other competing speakers of the day.

I’d like to thank Doug Maskew for sending in a scan of the promotional booklet that came with his brand new Sorcerers from 15 years ago.
