speakers

Hi all! New here. I’ve been looking to pick up a decent pair of vintage speakers to start my journey into proper hifi listening. I saw a pair of these speakers (attached), labelled RCA SPK250W. I tried searching online and I’m a little confused about exactly what they are, seems to be a few...

Looking for some suggestions for my particular application. I have a 1976 911 I am restoring and recently purchased a vintage Blaupunkt Kingston R24 head unit for the period correct look. Looking around, there are too many options. I'm looking for maybe a couple speakers to mount under the dash...

Hi all, I have been building this list (that turned into a website - https://speakerchoices.com) and I would appreciate any feedback, how I could make it more useful, what I should add/change/remove? ~100 companies, 350 speakers... Thank you!

I am in the market for speakers and recently demoed ADS L-810s. Wonderful sound, powered by the Rega Elicit-R. This, of course, led me down the vintage rabbit hole, an area of which I was ignorant, only to discover my father’s generation of high fidelity was actually pretty good. That said, I...

Been working on these for the last month. Cabinet and baffles made from 3/4 inch MDF. Each tower has - 2 H223f Coaxial units 1 RP 103b Horn 1 P8UM Midrange 1 C12NF Low Range Woofer in cabinet. Sorry, lighting is crap in listening space.

Howdy everyone, Ran across these speakers and an Estate pre sale in Austin. I have worked in audio for decades, and have never seen them. There are four, and none has a logo or rear label. I would love to know if anyone can recognize them. And no, they are not Polks as some have already...

Hi all, I currently run an Outlaw 2160MKII receiver and a pair of Tannoy SRM-10b - accompanied by an SVS sub as my vinyl lustening station. I have a pair of Sansui XP-8, a pair of KEF LS50 Meta, and some Technics towers piling up in the closet; a big variation as you can see. I’d like to set...

Trying to fix this speaker. Both drivers are working (tested them by holding the audio cable from my receiver directly to the contacts on the drivers) so i think there is a short on the pcb board. I know very little about electronics so it's hard for me to follow the path of current. I tried...

I wan’t to get some good used speakers but i,m new the this speaker world. Found these speaker on marketplace and the seller is asking 25$ Are they worth it?

Hello! I’m new to the audiophile community and don’t know much about it. I picked up a Sansui AU-101 to run a technics sl-d3 I had. I love how simple and sleek it looks and for my inexperienced ears it sounds pretty good. Currently have it connected to a pair of JBL Northridge E10’s. My...

I'm pretty well finished in building my systems, and anything that I might want is not likely going to show up at a thrift store. I've had hundreds of pieces of gear during the hey days of vintage audio. For a while, it was a desert out there! Especially considering the things I have found in...

Hello, Looking for some input on an issue I haven’t found a thread for. I recently re-foamed some Bose 901 series IV speakers. I’m aware of the polarizing nature and quality of the parts in the equalizer but at the right price I was able to get a relatively clean pair to clean up. While I was...

TLDR, Im looking to upgrade my old speakers. Some sonys I found for free on Facebook, stumbled onto this listing of some speakers but the seller doesn't know the brand. A few days worth of research and I haven't pulled anything. On some photos the seller listed it has a catalog number with...

I’m auditioning these 4 speakers: Canton Karat 300, Ohm FRS-7, Dahlquist DQM-9 Compact, Altec Lansing 305. I’m curious if one of the 4 really stand out and if you had to choose one (all in good condition) which would you pick? Sound + looks is important for me since these will be next to my...

Purchased this set last week from a fella on Offerup out of San Tan Valley AZ. Tweeters needed replacing, just attached a new pair today. Sound pretty good.

Hi Everyone, I'm new to the forum, so G'day from New Zealand! I have a problem which I'm struggling to solve. I have two pairs of speakers, IMF TLS 80 and some homebuilt 3 way speakers. Both sets of speakers have been working great for the past 2 years, at my wedding my brother in law...

Howdy AK. It's been a while. Too long :) I recently purchased x10 of these in-ceiling speakers for install in my brother's place. ( MM 650d ) Elan in-ceiling speakers. There is very little installation instruction online regarding these units. ( Plenty of instruction on mounting them but not...

Is there anyone who knows a good 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound system with or without atmos for a good price? I want thw whole package with receiver and speakers. Thanks in advance.

I need help identifying these speakers, they were on my grandpas basement since a long time ago, they work fantastically well but I don’t know the make or what kind of speakers these are. Also, if you have any suggestions for the two speakers missing on them would be much help. Thanks btw! Daniel.

New old stock Quatre 8000 II Stereo imaging speakers I think this was the last model year made. They have have been in storage since the early 80s. Still sound great.

I've been experiencing discomfort in my ears after a few minutes of listening at level 3 (going right) on my NAD 356 CBEE integrated amp paired with Triad Gold LCR speakers. The Triads are rated to handle 450 watts 4 ohms while the NAD provides 60 watts at 8 ohms. I've had various upgrades done...

My Zenith console has a problem where 1 or 2 of the speakers crackle / cut in and out when I adjust the volume. Is this a problem with the speakers or the volume control? Everything else works great but as it is now it’s unusable. Can the volume control be cleaned? Can the speakers be replaced...

Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well! I'm on the hunt for some vintage speakers and thought I'd reach out for some friendly advice. I've been after some KEF reference 103/3's, but they're getting few and far between. Love their look, that bass driver, the fact they aren't rear ported...

Hello all! I'm new to this community but by the looks of it you all seem super welcoming, so I thought I'd come here for a bit of advice. I have come into possession of my father's Dual 505-1 and I purchased a humble setup to start playing some records. Everything works great, plays nicely...
