Tannoy CHATSWORTH

A floorstanding monitor loudspeaker using a single dual concentric driver for full-range sound reproduction.

Overview

The Tannoy Chatsworth is a monitor loudspeaker in Tannoy's Heritage Line, alongside the Canterbury, GRF, and York. Catalog listings sometimes call it a compact bookshelf speaker. Multiple sources say otherwise: it's a floorstanding or corner speaker with classic 1950s styling. It has a single dual concentric driver, built for wide imaging and natural sound.
