Hello friends. I'm very new to the audio world I need some help. can anyone tell me anything and everything about this equipment. It appears to have all come from the same company M&S concert.... I'm just not sure how it all fits together or maybe what each individual thing is I know this sounds a little silly but any advice will help I also would like to evaluate what it could be worth. Thank you for taking the time to help me and respond to this post as our country is going through this very hard time..,. AGAIN THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

I'm not sure where to even start.....

The two woofers and tweeter mounted on the baffle do not appear to be anything of great value, especially given the low quality crossover components. I see some Large Advents in the background with Masonite woofers that are cool. The white component looks like an Adcom pre mayyybbbeee? In my opinion I do not see anything I personally would go out of my way for.
 
I would expect that the white amplifier would have a brand name on the front, or something on the back. Your photo has cropped this info from the front photo. Can you post what you can read, or post some more photos with the detail clearly shown.
 
Yes because I'm asking about the equipment in the front of the speaker wall. I said it all came from M&S concert. Can anyone help please. I don't know how the items even relate together......please help with advise. Do not pay attention to the background!
Yes AR-11. White is a JBL

Did the seller take pics on purpose that show no models or brands? I would be wary for that reason alone.

I'm not even saying they are for sale.i do wonder the value but that's irrelevant right now seeing I am inquiring about what exactly the equipment is....

I'm asking about the equipment in front. I stated in the post I'm not sure what it is or how they relate to each other but all came from M&S company.....can you tell me any information on this?
 
You definitely need better pictures, try and get pictures of the whole item preferably the front of back.

You don't have your country in your profile, it would help put a context to your post and to who the "M&S company" is. I'm not familiar with that as an audio brand. It is possible that it was re-branded equipment from other manufacturers (eg. by an importer creating a "new" brand for their market), or a house brand for a particular retail company - in these cases there is rarely documentation circulating as it was sold as consumer items and audiophiles tend to go for audio brands. A quick google suggested to me that M&S is a common abbreviation of the UK department store Marks and Spenser, which would suggest that it could have been their house branded audio equipment. But I don't know, as I don't know where you are.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say that you "just not sure how it all fits together". Are you saying that you don't have any experience with component audio equipment, and don't know how to connect it together to be able to use it?

When we ask for more detail and better pictures, we are not trying to give you a hard time. The more detailed information you can give, including clearer pictures, actually helps AK'ers give you the answers you are looking for. With what you have supplied, it's hard to tell, which is why there is the requests for more info to be able to help you.

You mentioned that you don't know what the equipment is (apart from the speakers). From your photos, the white box is a stereo amplifier - either an integrated amp or a preamplifier. Better pics of the front and back of this item would help to clarify this. It's hard to identify the other electronics without more detailed pics, your pics are dark, lack clarity, and don't indicate the front/back, and it's hard for us to know which pics are of the same item or if they are all of different items.

What's the context of how you acquired this? Did it come from a domestic location, or did it have a life as professional equipment? Or did you buy this as an unknown lot in a storage locker sale, and have no knowledge of it's previous use?
 
Not sure what you expect anyone to do with those crap pictures. Stuff looks like rubbish anyway but the white amp MAY be interesting except the picture shows nothing useful.

I expect its a 100v line amplifier anyway aka worthless
 
I think the OP wants to buy it, but doesn’t want to give enough info for someone to do a search and find it and scoop it out from in front of him. I wish him good luck. Those pictures are useless to assess value. Other than to think it is low value.

For some reason I think he originally wanted prices to use to sell them (inherited or was gifted them?) and it got deleted or edited. At that point the pictures got crappier as well.

Could be. I'm not on here as much as I was. Listening to records so I can thin my collection.

Certainly is a weird post!
