Never heard of them, but the seem to be a quality speaker. These have seen better days.

Seen better days is an understatement.

For $800 they could have taken better pics too. Pics of the mystery top woofer would be nice.

Lots of quality well known speakers in this price point.

Oh well

Yeah, the poor photos crack me up. Always seeing post with shitty photography. Do people realize we humans bend at the knees? And how about wiping off your lens every so often.

Meanwhile, the condition of those cabinets really make it hard to be comfortable dropping anywhere near $800. But they are cool.

Unless on stands, the drivers seem to be wrong placement? Still they look cool.

I have these speakers. They are probably the most balanced speaker that I own. Evidently studio monitors from the early 80’s. Tried to contact Heco for more information to no avail. Bought them in very good condition from a collection. They are keepers to my ears. They are big and heavy. They need a big room to breath imho.

A pair for sale near me. Good pic of the top driver, so I thought I'd post them.

Those drivers have a very A/D/S - Braun look, nut, evidently, they made their own drivers.

Just learned of their existence while cruising Ebay.

At first glimpse, I thought, "/D/S drivers but someone yanked off all the little wires! "

If they were around locally, I'd wanna check them out.

That is because HECO, made the drivers for Braun, and Visonik.

Early A/D/S used "Braun" drivers.
