Plenty of fun the Cheviots. It's a very different sound to the DM2s though.
Good foam cone surrounds are essential or budget to replace them or recone. Mine had knackered surrounds when I bought them, I replaced them myself.
I had the Mk.I HPD 315 Cheviots, which are the most common. Currently I'm using the rare 3128 Mk.II Cheviot, which I find I prefer. The Mk.II was only made for about 11 months, so there are very few about.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I love mine and they seem to be well received by any visitors (see NWBO thread). As Geoff says, a different presentation to the B&Ws. If you like it, I doubt you'll ever go back, but if you don't you should be able to flog a pair on quite easily.
