I love this! It would be really funny if it came with little plastic turds that bounced on the speaker cone when the speaker is playing!
I think Raisinets and Goobers would fit the bill just fine!!

Jensen had a few really ugly 70's models.
Nothing there that can't be restored. But if you decide to part them out let me knowThese McIntosh's are fairly hideous

Hah, no, not mine. I was refering more to the cabinet design. I redact, this is a better photo.

Yes, Harbeths. 13 grand for speakers that looks like my dad made them.
"Yah son, I just got this new boxa fancy router bits and I guess we can use these drywall screws."
Maybe not ugly, just that right mix of prestige and butchery that the British use when making stuff.

hey, that photo with the grill off is actually a photo of my speaker!
They were so ugly they are pretty.
The foam surround on woofer were originally blue, midrange foams yellow, tweeter surrounds red. Looked better then.

No offense taken on ugly comment, the grills were very 70's. They even came in olive green shades.

When I think ugly speakers I think vintage AR's with their grilles removed. They remind me of an 8th grader's first project with the goop slopped on the tweeter wires and the woofer basket edges ground down to fit into the cabinet that wasn't built quite wide enough lol.
