This is a pair and I can only assume that it was a couple of DIY cabinets. Ive never seen these crossovers before and I cant find anything out about them so please HELP lol. Ive hooked them up and they sound great! More pics to follow as soon as I can get to storage lol. I took a chance for $40 and got them home and found gold inside and I was quite proud of myself till I realized I had to store them lol

Awesome, thanks! I'll have to post some pics of my early 90s Mission speakers that I got for $4 at a yard sale and they sound amazing! Nice profile pic btw! Any ideas on that crossover? Its about the size of a brick lol. I have absolutely no where to put these speakers and no idea what theyre worth either lol

Yeah shes getting a bit irritated with my collecting habits lol. If I can sell a few pieces for a reasonable amount then perhaps I can change her mind lol

I wish! lol My girlfriend would kill me if I even brought them in the living room lol. The cabs are like 4 feet tall and wide lol

Just tell her you'd like to try them out in a proper setup before selling them. If they sound good enough she might let you keep them.

Funny, I just went through a speaker purge without telling my wife and she was disappointed that I sold some of her "favorites." I didn't even know she was paying attention.

Yeah, all my speakers and everything are in the basement or storage and Im out of room, so shes kind of right and I really need to purge lol
 
I got them at a yard sale in the early spring right after I found a pair of Mission 762i's for $4 at another sale. More recently I got a pair of Definitive technology BP7006 Supertowers and a mythos iii center channel all used a couple of times for $100 and the other day picked up some good condition bose 6.2's for $35 and trying to decide if I want to make an offer on a local pair of DCM tf600's. I have a problem with not turning down deals sometimes, thats why Im now here with all of you lol

These are way too big for my house and I need to sell them but I have no idea what to charge for them at all. Ive hooked them up and they sound great! More pics to follow as soon as I can get to storage lol. I took a chance for $40 and got them home and found gold inside and I was quite proud of myself till I realized I had to store them lol

Oh I almost forgot! They are the University BLACK c-15w's if that makes a difference at all I know they are slightly shorter than the green ones
 
Gold! The dividing networks are Altec crossovers used with the 800 hz horn and various compression drivers. You may have 806's on the horns. If you had Altec woofers, you would basically have the Valencia components of yesteryear. Head over to the "D&S" section for questions about value. .

Thank you!! Ive asked a ton of people where these divider networks came from for forever lol. I did find the D&S section, thank you and Im sorry for breaking any rules guys Im a complete newb on this sight, very first day lol. Also does it make a difference that these are the Black University c-15w's? I cant seem to find much on them, only the green ones other than that the back is slightly shorter
