Thirumegnanam is my suspicion. One of the Thiruvizhimalai Brothers was Thirumegnanam Shanmughasundaram Pillai according to a thread in this forum. I think coolkarniji had uploaded couple of tracks.

The Therimeygnanam brothers recording that was posted in sangeethapriya.org sounds like TKR and the style is more like TK Rangachari and the song selections are also leading us to percieve us that they hail from TKR school.

Or it is TKR himself singing? because one voice comes as dominant and the other voice is almost dormant unlike the other brothers concerts.

YES! The So called Thirumegnam brothers concert posted in Sangeethapriya.org is indeed the concert of Shri T.K.Rangachari. TKR fans, please verify with your old downloads, you might see this concert in your list.

Dear Vishnuji
Now it does make sense that it could be Sri TKR. There is a speech in between the thodi alapana where he praises Sri Lalgudi. The way he speaks (style) if compared to another concert where he has spoken about Sri MC, it does sound more like TKR.

It has been suggested before - that this concert is of TKR. I downloaded it earlier and slightly altered/enhanced sound quality and uploaded it. No other details are available. the names - TKR Iyyappan & TKR Meenakshi Sundaram - was taken by me from information available on the net.
