Can anyone tell me what these may or may not be? I was hoping for something a little more spectacular for being 6 footers.

I swear, I don't think I am going to go after them. I don't think there is anything useful in that setup. I don't see how they can sound good. Looks like someone stretched out a bookshelf speaker.

That horn looks a bit like something from the EV T-35 family.

I'd prolly hafta go look...If they are really really cheap. Those look to be 18" woofs and some cute horn tweets. Might be some interesting project material.


Subwoofer project, yeah!

The perfect speaker for playing "Also Sprach Zarathustra". Maybe not much else...

Nothin' here to look at. If you're really looking for interesting and useful 6 foot tall speakers, think VMPS Towers, IRS types, JBL L220, even Martin Logan stats.

Nice location for a tweeter horn right where it will beam the high frequencies so you can't hear them, I guess it's the new "east coast" horn design...

L220's = 4 footers... but WAY better looking than these things! Might even sound better

Amazing how far apart the drivers are. No attention was paid to the piston range of the drivers. :screwy:

There`s probably enough wood there to make 3 or 4 sets of Indignias .

Which version? Classical or funk?

I actually play that Deodato CD A LOT ("Prelude"). It's one of those super-quiet CD's, so I can crank up my receiver pretty-loud, and then the CD opens right up.

By the way, those are some strange-looking PA speakers.
