Sound & Performance

Renowned for delivering an authentically warm and generous sound signature, the Cheviot unfurls wide soundstages, nuanced detail, and emotionally rich presentations. The low-frequency is articulate and expressive—not overpowering yet deeply impactful—while the midrange is velvety and lifelike. The high frequencies are smooth, and the entire experience is rich in tonal depth and musical storytelling. Judicious use of the front-panel controls lets listeners tailor the speaker to their room or preference without sacrificing clarity.
