I had to share my latest find and I hope some of you find this as intriguing as I do. I have a co-worker who, along with his brother were good friends with Steve Eberbach, one of the founders of DCM speakers of Ann Arbor. Steve designed these speakers back in the early 70's and were the precursors to those designs that eventually went in to full production. They are Phillips, 4 woofers and 4 tweeters per speaker and are designed to be room corner placement to accentuate bass reproduction. The brother had held on to these speakers since the early 70's and he warmly reminisced with me listening to Dark Side of the Moon as the heartbeat shook the apartment building. Great stuff. Anyways, he was ready to let these speakers go and they now await refurbishing in my garage. I am going to refinish the birch tops, re-paint the flat back sides and rear and take a look at the crossover. It seems that 3 of the 8 woofers are putting out a diminished amount of sound. I haven't looked at the crossovers yet, but I plant to take a look at these over the next week. I'll post more pics as I progress with the restoration. A neat piece of speaker history.
