Jag har låtit bygga nya lådor till mina fina tannoy little red element. Är ca 69l med ordentligt stagade lådor. Elektroniken är original och låter fantastiskt. Är nu avstämda till ca 38hz vilket låter grymt. Är lackade hos professionell firma. Har dock lossnat lite färg runt skruvhålen på baksidan efter att jag skruvat ur och i skruvarna några gånger. Har en burk färg om du vill peta i alternativt lämna bakstyckena på lackning för nån femhundring om baksidorna ska stå väl
Condition is unknown, so the main price read comes from the market anchor: kr25,000 sits well below the kr34,393 25th percentile and far under the kr43,785 median, making this a strong buy if the speakers are complete and mechanically healthy. For a pair of well-kept Cheviots, that is bargain territory rather than merely fair value.
Cheviots are respected for big, lively presentation, easy driveability, and the kind of scale that works especially well with rock, jazz, and older recordings. The upside here is good if the cabinets, drivers, and crossovers are original and untampered; just verify woofer surrounds, tweeter output, grille condition, and whether stands, badges, or packaging are included, since missing or repaired parts matter more on a deal this good.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Tannoy traces its origins to 1926 in London, where Yorkshire-born engineer Guy R. Fountain established the Tulsemere Manufacturing Company in a modest garage. Initially focused on battery chargers and rectifiers for early radio sets, the brand name Tannoy emerged in 1928 as a contraction of "tantalum alloy," the key materials in its innovative electrolytic rectifiers. This British pioneer quickly pivoted to loudspeakers, cementing a heritage of audio innovation that spans nearly a century, including a relocation to Coatbridge, Scotland, in the 1970s.
The company specializes in loudspeakers, renowned for its revolutionary Dual Concentric driver introduced in 1947 at the London Radio Show, which transformed studio monitoring and home audio. Tannoy's portfolio centers on high-quality speakers—ranging from bookshelf and floorstanding models to the iconic Prestige series—alongside public address systems. While historically versatile in professional sound, its modern emphasis remains on hi-fi stereo and home cinema speakers, leveraging decades of driver technology expertise rather than diversifying into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Tannoy holds a revered position as one of the world's oldest loudspeaker manufacturers, blending high-end prestige with vintage appeal for discerning collectors and audiophiles. Its studio-grade monitors and meticulously crafted cabinets, often produced by specialists like Poland's Diora, earn consistent praise from hi-fi critics for exceptional clarity and dynamics. Now under the Music Tribe group, Tannoy endures as a benchmark for authentic British sound reproduction, appealing to knowledgeable buyers seeking timeless performance over fleeting trends.
