Built around a 15-inch Dual Concentric driver, the Arden combines a direct-radiating bass cone and a centrally mounted high-frequency compression driver within the same assembly, creating the coherent point-source presentation for which vintage Tannoy speakers are highly respected. Its large bass-reflex cabinet allows the Arden to reproduce music with impressive scale, natural tonal balance, deep bass extension, and a spacious soundstage. This pair is especially well suited for listeners who value realistic vocals, acoustic instruments, orchestral recordings, jazz, blues, and high-quality vinyl playback. 2/ Key Highlights Authentic pair of vintage Tannoy Arden speakers 15-inch HPD Dual Concentric driver system Point-source design for coherent imaging and natural soundstage presentation Large bass-reflex cabinet for deep, effortless low-frequency reproduction Adjustable Energy and Roll-Off controls Classic British tonal balance with strong collector appeal Professionally inspected, serviced, and tested by HQaudios Carefully packed for safe shipment Backed by our 1-Year HQaudios Warranty 3/ Basic Specifications Model: Arden Type: Pair Of Vintage Floorstanding Speakers System: 2-Way Dual Concentric Bass-Reflex Loudspeaker System Driver: 15-Inch HPD Dual Concentric Driver Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohms Power Handling: 85 Watts Frequency Response: Approximately 30 Hz–20 kHz Sensitivity: Approximately 91 dB Crossover: Approximately 1.1 kHz Controls: Adjustable Energy and Roll-Off Controls Dimensions: Approximately 39 × 26 × 14.6 Inches Each Origin: Made in England Included Pair of speakers only, unless otherwise clearly shown 4/Sound Character The Tannoy Arden is known for a natural, spacious, and highly coherent presentation. Because the high-frequency driver is positioned concentrically within the bass driver, vocals and instruments appear to originate from a unified acoustic source, supporting stable imaging and convincing soundstage depth. Bass is deep and authoritative, while the midrange has the rich, organic quality associated with classic Tannoy loudspeakers. High frequencies are detailed yet smooth, allowing long listening sessions without an overly aggressive presentation. The Arden performs particularly well with jazz, classical music, vocals, acoustic recordings, blues, orchestral works, and vinyl playback. 5/ Technical Condition These speakers have been professionally inspected, serviced, and tested by HQaudios technicians. The Dual Concentric drivers, crossover networks, control panels, input terminals, cabinet structures, and channel balance were evaluated under real listening conditions. 6/ Service / inspection performed: 15-inch HPD Dual Concentric drivers inspected and tested Low-frequency cone operation verified High-frequency compression driver operation verified Crossover networks inspected Energy controls checked Roll-Off controls checked Input terminals inspected and cleaned Driver suspensions inspected Cabinet structures inspected Grilles and badges inspected Left and right channel balance verified Extended real-world listening test completed Final quality inspection completed before shipment After inspection and testing, both speakers perform properly and deliver consistent output. 7/ HQaudios Restoration & Testing Process Before Restoration Before restoration begins, each Tannoy Arden is carefully inspected to assess the condition of the 15-inch HPD Dual Concentric drivers, high-frequency compression sections, crossover networks, Energy and Roll-Off controls, input terminals, driver suspensions, internal wiring, and cabinet structures. Special attention is given to driver balance, high-frequency output, low-frequency response, control operation, cabinet integrity, and tonal consistency between the left and right speakers. During Restoration Based on the initial inspection, the pair is serviced according to HQaudios' technical standards while preserving the original Tannoy engineering and sound character. The Dual Concentric drivers, crossover networks, control assemblies, input terminals, internal wiring, and mounting hardware are inspected and serviced where necessary. Contacts and controls are cleaned, connections are checked, and any component that no longer meets operating requirements is addressed as needed. The cabinets, grilles, badges, and exterior surfaces are carefully cleaned and detailed while preserving the authentic vintage appearance of the pair. After Restoration After restoration, both speakers undergo comprehensive functional and listening tests. Low-frequency output, high-frequency response, control operation, channel balance, imaging, tonal consistency, and cabinet stability are verified under real listening conditions. Finally, the pair completes extended listening tests with a complete vintage audio system. Only after meeting HQaudios' operational and listening standards is the pair approved and prepared for shipment. 8/ Cosmetic Condition The speakers are in excellent vintage cosmetic condition and may show normal signs of age and previous use, including light marks, minor veneer imperfections, small scratches, or corner wear. The grille cloths, Tannoy badges, cabinet edges, control panels, rear labels, and input terminals should be reviewed carefully in the photos, as they form part of the description.
