cool old speakers at estate sale

[Mingo]

Any ideas on what these are and a value? They also have a Magnavox tube console. I've only seen photos, so no idea on if they work or not.

They look like part of one of those portable PA systems that you hang the speaker on your waist. They appear to be from the military.

as for the value...a collector would probably pay some big bucks for those but to the average audiophile they would sound really bad and be worth nothing.

I think they may have been early stereo add-a-speakers. In that era, there were certain model consoles that could be enabled to play through the additional speakers in the new stereophonic mode.
