[Alessandro71]

Hi new to the group so open to guidance on were to post pictures of theses speakers I am trying to identify.

ESS rock monitor maybe?

 

[BilboBaggins]

ESS Rock monitors have a cloth covered opening on the sides. These do not. But they do look similar.

Too narrow for AMT 3's

 

[Alessandro71]

I was told they were built from a kit and are from 1976.

That does narrow it down a bit. They don't look like Heathkit or Speakerlab, and the printing on the back panel suggests that the cabinets were included with the kit. However, there were several small companies offering speaker kits back in the 1970s whose names have been lost to time.

 

[Alessandro71]

They are very heavy and don’t really have a cheapo vibe at all.

Per your attached pics looks like 1974, are you thinking about purchasing?

That image with all the wires makes my head spin. Maybe it's because I just came from a thread about a receiver with 5 metal jumpers, or actually the lack of those jumpers.
Hope you find out what they are.

 

[Alessandro71]

0hh yea for some reason thought it was 76. I picked them up for $10

 

[TomD62]

Once you have hitched them up let us know how they sound. For $10 it was definitely worth the chance. It will be interesting to see what the drivers are.

 

[Dswankey]

It will be interesting to see what the drivers are.

Also might help with additional identification

 

[swechsler]

Post a pic with the front grilles removed if you can.

 

[Alessandro71]

Grills look like they are glued or nailed down . So not able to see the drivers . They sound pretty good. A little lacking in bass but that is comparing them to forte’s .

Sounds like you need a Auto Trim Removal Set. Works well for removing knobs from equipment, stubborn speaker grills that have been stapled on,...
