The Chevening is a pretty rare model. Only in production for a short while. They do sound nice.
I'm surprised there's a pair still functioning. They were very prone to the foam cone surrounds rotting away.
The Eaton model that replaced it is a better speaker though. That used the HPD 295A.
IMO very nice Garrard 301/401 plinths for sale here:

Tannoy Dorset Speakers. Lovely pics! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Marvellous...item33a83a8ba3
S.
They are good pics. Obviously taken by somebody who knows photography.
The Tannoys are not the most popular series. They are first generation 'plastic cone' Tannoys and not taken seriously by many. They are actually pretty decent, just tonally different. In my collection, I have the smaller, ABR-less Ascots from the same range and they sound good enough. They're just awaiting some mods! :)
Quite a good deal this if your in the area

HUGELY OVERPRICED THORENS
Imagine what he would be asking if it had the tracking weight, lid, and finger lift!
The flight out to Memphis to check on his provenance is going to cost a few quid 'n all.
