What are these monsters?

Its a moot point as OP states they are at a thrift store! Likely cheapish and will also most likely allow potential buyer to open up to see whats inside! Nothing to see hear...Carry on....

Yes. I have a close relationship with the store so no worries there. My neighbor is as excited as I am so I expect that I'll be looking over his shoulder during the inspection.

Nolasally....we lived in NOLA for 10 years post Katrina.
Are you from the area?
 
Nope...Im a chicago boy who married an uptown New Orleans girl. She grew up there....We take the family down every spring to see the inlaws....
 
@doctorolds Sorry if I harmed you....Your words not mine! At a minimum its deceptive at best!

your quote:

If you get a chance to open them up.....

No harm, no foul, I wasn't harmed at all.
It kind of appeared that you meant try to steal them, wasn't sure of the sellers or buyers knowledge, or if functional. I just thought you were a bit abrupt with your comments. I know what I would do, and so do you based on the situation.
As I said, one suggestion, not knowing or discussing further with OP. All situations, knowledge, and experience come into play.
I'm good, sorry if you thought I was abrupt with my response to the OP. :beerchug:

Are the Pioneer PAT speakers good?

Having messed around with PAX speakers in the past I can tell you they're well built, heavy and should be 16ohm which will allow you to drive them with low wattage gear and as @nolasally mentioned would play well with tubes as they manufactured back when tube amps were still around.
 
I’d say buy them and use them as seats around your fire pit. When you run low on wood you can just throw one speaker at a time right on the fire.
 
Those are AT-16 l-pads, mid 1950's, they were sold as separate components as well as packaged with some of the PAX coaxials. But, a PAX only uses one.

The PAT l-pads are sistered together on a single chassis with the network.

You da man!!! thanks as always for sharing your knowledge

Hoping for an update from your trip to inspect them buggers. :lurk:

I walked through the door with my screwdriver in one hand and magnifying glass in the other.

My contact at the thrift store told me that 15 minutes after I left yesterday a guy came in and offered him 500 bucks....so they sold.

I'm not going to beat myself up too badly.

Probably best that I don't know what I missed]
