Chinook
Chinook is a warm wind that occurs on the downward slope of a mountain.
In Canada, the winds originate from the Pacific Coast. Cool as they blow up the Canadian Rockies, they warm significantly as they drop down the eastern slopes, freeing Calgarians for a few blissful moments from winter’s icy grasp.

Goal
At RAD, we are music lovers and our mission is simple yet ambitious: to design and build high-end loudspeakers that deliver exceptional sound quality without the inflated price tag often associated with premium audio gear. We believe that true high-fidelity sound should be accessible to more people, not just a luxury for the few. That’s why we are relentlessly focused on achieving the perfect balance between performance, craftsmanship, and value. Every component, material, and design decision is carefully chosen to ensure our speakers offer a listening experience that rivals much more expensive options. With RAD, you’re not just getting a speaker, you’re getting an uncompromising commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
Chinook
Our Chinook 2-way speaker merges precision engineering with a timeless, traditional cabinet design. Hand-built using top-tier components and housed in acoustically optimized, furniture-grade enclosures with rich, premium finishes, the Chinook delivers high-performance sound with the elegance of timeless fine-craftsmanship.
Sound
The Chinook features a world-class 182 mm pulp/fiberglass woofer paired with a precision 26 mm silk dome tweeter. This carefully matched driver combination delivers a smooth, natural frequency response and exceptional off-axis performance.
Using high-grade Solen components in the crossover ensures quality and consistency. The result is a revealing, immersive soundstage that remains fatigue-free, letting every detail fall perfectly into place.
Enclosures
The Chinook features a ported, well-braced MDF cabinet for enhanced structural integrity and acoustic performance and longevity. Available in two premium veneer finishes, White Oak and Walnut, Chinook blends effortlessly into any space. Gold-plated binding posts are mounted on a rigid aluminum terminal plate for reliable connectivity, while the interior walls are lined with EVA foam for additional resonance control.
White oak’s light, neutral tones and Walnut’s richness, make both a versatile choice that complements everything from classic to contemporary interiors. Our cabinets present natural warmth that aligns perfectly with today’s design trend, favoring organic wood finishes in living rooms and entertainment spaces.
Magnetic Grills
Magnetic grills are included in both light cloth to match the white oak and black cloth for the walnut.
