Lots of treble.
I had a chance just this week to hear some Frazier concertos run by a marantz 2220 I was helping a friend with. They're a little different than the ones you've posted with the four (4!) horn tweeters. But I was surprised how good they sounded and how well built they appeared to be. I'd buy them if I came across a good pair, but no idea how they stack up to the one's you're asking about specifically.

Who are you people anyway?
They be like Lay's Potato Chips. A pair are on Ebay now for $300.00, but have been listed forever. $200.00 or less would be reasonable. Not many really know Frazier
speakers, so they often sit until a diehard Frazier collector scoops them up. If for home use, buy some 6" tapered legs, (Home Depot/Lowes) and get them off the floor. They were designed as a ceiling mounted speaker. Lots of Treble? NO. If you like vintage Klipsch, you will like these.

I had a pair, J. These are not nearly as good as the 6s.

the photo above of the unit on legs was taken by AKer pmsummer in his home. it is one of a group of four he acquired about 10 years ago in a skate rink selloff. i bought 2 of them for crazy low money, and we were set to do the roundtrip to pick them up in Tulsa, but the day broke with heavy sleet, blowing snow, frozen rain, bitter cold and i opted out. summer went anyway and came back with this haul. i've kept mine ever since. they now do duty at the Texas Theater as part of the Tuesday Night Record Club set up once a month. they are plenty adequate for that setting (loud) driven by a 2x50 watt class D mini-amp. i mounted heavy casters and used them in my home for a number of years and loved the tight bass, big sound, and yes, the soundstage, which Fraziers seem to do so well, no matter which model you're listening to. one day, i'll reclaim them from the Texas, recap them (one cap!) and freshen up the cabs and use them somewhere around here
Wait, did I read this correctly that you got 6 pairs of them for less than $100? Holy crap. That could be one hell of a surround sound set up. Congrats

Wow. I have wanted to try some Fraziers, but my attempts were not as fruitful as yours.
