They look nice, the only Tannoy I have heard with my 400 at the time (now 440pro)
was a set of Churchills and they sounded fantastic, wide soundstage, low bass lots of air
around all instruments.

Very similar to Tannoy Berkley from the 70’s apart from a more sofisticated crossover adjustment arrangement and the advancement in driver technology. Dual concentric drivers are extremely efficient and I am certain these will sound fantastic using a Devialet.
My old Berkley’s are still being used by my son and I love to listen to them each time I visit. The only reason I changed speakers was downsizing our house and the Tannoy’s were too large for the room.
Cheers
Bill.

They look fantastic. Only a couple of feet wide and quite shallow, with front ports, they should be easy to place. They say that they are for larger rooms, but I wonder what they’d sound like near field?
Not too expensive either. Good bang for the buck, I’d say! Are you going to get a demo booked?

I've let Tannoy know on their website I'd like to do a demo, but no stores in Sweden sell these. It's possible to buy them from Denmark and do a 30 day trial, but that just seems like a too big hassle.
I ordered a pair of Legacy Arden's yesterday, can't wait until they arrive early next week. I've got a 1000 Pro - I'll report back!

Good for you @
pjlarge! I bet they’ll sound fantastic. So, yes, please keep us up to date during the run in period and as they start to come "on song". Could you please compose a signature so that we can see what else you have in your system? This would be especially helpful for comparisons to what the rest of us are running.

Signature updated!
I am using Tannoy GR Stirlings with an Expert 220 Pro CI and like them very much.

pjlarge did you receive the Arden's? How do you like them in your system? I've been looking at the new Cheviot, but have not had a chance to listen to a pair yet.
