The Tannoy Berkeley is a classic 1970s 2-way floorstanding loudspeaker using a single 15-inch HPD dual concentric driver (HPD 385A) in a ducted-port enclosure, offering high sensitivity, 35 Hz to 20 kHz bandwidth, and the characteristic Tannoy dual-concentric sound in a cabinet smaller than the Arden. Introduced in 1976 as the smaller sibling to the Arden, it is known for its natural, musical presentation.
