Interesting vintage speakers?

[Bill Haywood]

Does anyone have any recommendations for something in the ball part of £200 that are loud, old & with decent/interesting sound or form factor? (like speakers with lots of drivers)

I have a great set up in my room but wanted something more interesting for my living room.

Get a pair or build some Electro Voice Regency cabs. 15 in woofers, EV-T350 tweeters and EV 1823m mids. You can blow the walls off. Big and old school. Just rebuilt a hand made cab just got to do the grill cloth or maybe not. I like seeing the speakers...

Honestly not cheap. You can acquire the raw speakers on Ebay and they are rather expensive but I have bought raw speakers a lot cheaper new from retailer's on line. If you are handy you can build a pair pretty cheap and have fun doing it. You can download the building plans on line. Also you can build a pair of EV Aristocrats and half the size and make them 3way or 2way and they use a 12in woofer. Much cheaper. Extremely satisfying to build them yourself. Have fun....
