Tannoy Cheviot Loudspeaker (each)
Must be purchased in pairs.
Here is your opportunity to get Cheviot at a great price. Upscale Audio has always been on your side. The new Tannoy importer didn’t bring in Cheviot but only the SGM-12, which we were told is more or less a Cheviot with the controls moved. And one more difference: They raised the price to $3995 each.
Now, it’s been speculated that they didn’t bring in Cheviot because we have a lot in stock, and our price is way less than $3995 they ask for the SGM.
Music is an art form that needs to be experienced in all its beauty, detail, and nuance without the colouration that can instantly detract from its purest essence. A truly great loudspeaker design enables the speaker system to remove itself from the soundscape and present the music in a manner that envelopes you in the same way as a live performance.
In the 1970s TANNOY created a range of monitors that forever changed the way studio engineers and audiophiles alike chose to experience high-quality audio. The TANNOY HPD Series quickly became some of the most beloved Hi-Fi loudspeakers of all time.
More than just a homage to its predecessor, the Legacy Series CHEVIOT Floor-Standing 12″ Dual Concentric Hi-Fi Loudspeaker further elevates the TANNOY HPD heritage of outstandingly transparent performance with the implementation of new, upscaled drivers and components – technology that was unavailable at the time. Simply put, CHEVIOT delivers legendary HPD performance to a new generation of music aficionados.
