help identifying speakerlab speakers

[wanguskohn]

Hey guys,

There is this pair of speakerlab speakers available on craigslist for 100, but the guy doesn't seem to know much about them. could any of you help out?

the dimensions are 27.5 x 15.5 x 12 and he said they weigh around 50lbs

Mmm, I don't recognize the model but SpeakerLab was weird about models and changed things a lot. They also sold things in kit form and let you build your own. Since that's the way they did things, factory and homemade really don't matter much. As long as the drivers are good and the cabs are made well, it could be a score. Good Speakerlabs sound great.

I have a set of speakers that have SpeakerLab dirvers and some unknown/unheard of name on them. I asked Speakerlab but I guess their too busy sniffing glue to answer the email. I assume it was a kit deal. They sound good.

SO, the best bet is to listen to them and decide. Prices can run all over the place but a killer set of speakers should be worth $100 on any good day.

Wave Aperture 6's
a step below the WA 7's which have the additional 10" woofer.
Well worth the $100.

How is the bass on these speakers? Will i need a subwoofer? or will they be sufficent without one?

 

[Sir.Byrd]

You'll be fine without one.
