    Pazos Speakers? Anyone know ANYTHING?

    Does anyone know ANYTHING about Pazos Speakers? I'm still dialing these in with stuffing and I need to rebuild the crossover as soon as I get some specs from someone. I don't even have a model number or country of origin! In fact the only reason I think they are made by a mysterious company...

    curb-find speaker identification

    I found a pair of floor-standing speakers on the curb outside a neighbour's house this morning, piled them into my truck and set them up at home. They don't look like much, but they sound pretty damn fine. The cones are pushed in but I don't notice any issues with sound quality. I currently have...

I have isolated the preamp/amp, swapped amp boards and outputs (left to right), replaced all transistors, all...

    No luck finding info on this TT

    A buddy of mine brought over a few old pieces, knowing I'm a sucker for old hi-fi. I can't find any info on the Curtis Mathes turntable (CM-26) (B712). It seems to run fairly well except the tonearm lift is currently not working. Does anyone know about these are it it lost to the sands of time?

    'Ohmm' P212. Rip off of Ohm speakers or genuine vintage?

    Please scroll to the bottom of my post for pics. I have just bought the pair for a price which I am willing to disclose if anyone can tell me the value of these :) I googled the hell out of them and could not find an identical speaker at all. Seller claims they are from the 70s and were used...

    ID Denon Speakers

    These are being listed nearby for free. This picture is the only information I have on them other than they are apparently working. Can anyone ID them or maybe get close enough to an idea if they're from a decent lineage? They are DENON. Thanks!!! 7

    Very strange speaker identification

    Found this thing today for $12 at a place that cleans out estates. Naturally I was intrigued as soon as I saw that it was a speaker. I bought it, and it turned out to have a single late 50s Jensen P8RX speaker in it. As for identifiers, it has a full make/model/serial plate on the back -...

    Motorola ID Help?

    So I showed this from Craigslist to my wife this evening. Now it looks like I may have convinced her that my new hobby isn't such a bad thing. Can anyone help identify either the console or the amp chassis. It looks like it may be one of the 3 channel 6bq5 amps, but not sure. Thanks
