It is an acoustic suspension design, so you should be able to remove the screws, lay the speaker cabinet on its back, crank some tunes and the speaker will separate itself from the cabinet via the pressure built up within the cabinet.
If that's a KN928 I had (well, technically still have) that amp. It developed issues that I could not resolve so I turned it into a basic amp. Thread here: http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/in...amp-design-p-p-el84-with-12ax7-driver.759935/
If it didn't come out by prying the edge or lifting it out with pliers, I doubt your suggestion would work. Thanks.
I'm not even going to plug it in. It's going up for sale. I'm not into tube gear...yet. I can barely keep the solid state stuff up and running.
Look very similar to the AR-4x's woofers, sans a different color surround.
I have exceptional Google search skills, and I still can't find out anything about them. I'm pretty convinced that they are not from the USA. Can't get over the build quality and the sound is very good for a small speaker. I've only tried pulling one of the woofers. I'll see if the other one will budge.
Agreed, but I would like to find out more about the company. Were they based in the U.S., did they sell other components/speaker models, years they were in business, etc. They must be a rare find, because I can usually find anything with a Google search, even if it takes some time.
Thanks. I searched on those exact terms using search operators, and didn't find what you did. I'll check it out. Appreciate the help.
I understand about the house brands and small makers. I have often searched for long-defunct stores and brands and usually find at least a mention somewhere, no matter how obscure. I'm happy to have acquired the speakers, and I'll take them for what they are. I appreciate the help and comments I've received.The 70s was a time when there were a lot of small speaker manufacturers, and many brands made specifically for particular stores as inexpensive store brands. Filip may have been sold at certain stores, or who knows. It's not surprising to see obscure brands from that era, happens all the time. Since they are 'ok' speakers but not high end, they never gained a following in the modern collector community. Probably not much published info about them, compared to, say, Altec's data sheets on their speakers and drivers. They were not heavily marketed nationally. They predate the internet. Taken together it is not surprising there is 'nothing on the web.'
Except now there is.
