I got these speakers from a gentleman who enjoyed his audio. From the same system that had Altec Lansing model 14s and Bose 901 he had these speakers that looked to be do it yourself. Perhaps a speaker kit. All drivers made in Korea. I am thinking the '80s. They sound very good and are probably...

found this dusty bastard being neglected in a pile of auto parts under a table in a corner at an garage sale. sansui 500a for peanuts. there are also some ugly but rare chrysler speakers that this sucker used to drive that i might go pick up. they unfortunately want some money for these...

i got these lovelies on CL this afternoon. my relentless checking of CL pays off after a long dry spell

I have a chance at a rather large set of vintage speakers and i cannot find much info. They look solid and well built. i was going to buy some diatone ds-50c s but got distracted by these. any opinions or data? i am guessing 60-70 lbs big thanks!
