Those are Sony SS176.
The tweeter in particular is rather good.
I recently modded a 4 way transmission line kit speaker built in the early 70s. The T27 and Coles 4001 were swapped out for the...
Beavering away today I've sorted the xovers and dropped in some tweeters for a test play.
Bloody hell they go low, but the top end is well, soft. They currently seem shut in with no real treble...
I recently acquired a pair of speakers based on a kit design I think from Rogers.
The driver layout mimics Cambribge R50s, i.e. B139, B110, T27 and Coles 4001.

Is your WiFi modem positioned anywhere near your amps perchance?
Tubes are remarkably sensitive to WiFi emmisions.....a tube preamp I ran recently was placed near my modem and picked up all sorts of...
If your TV box has a digital output, Virgin has optical...Sky both optical and coaxial, you can purchase a DAC from Amazon for less than 30 quid which will give a much improved sound quality.

That controller in pic one looks like the wireless volume for that French digital super amp....Devialet.
Thanks for the thread thumbs up....when I first posted I imagined (drunkenly)...
I recently aquired a pair of Leak cabs from a friends garage.
They are unmatched very early 2way types with the 12" bass and cone tweeter.
Sadly, a visual inspection gives me the impression the...

Expected to see a box...a musical box.

Vinyl....as bad today as it always was.
I owned a pair of NS 500 from yamaha a few years ago.
Almost the same berillium tweeter as the 1000, coupled to a light, paper coned 10" bass unit.
Although housed in a very heavy, well built and...
"Foaming at the mouth".....this thread is nothing without pictures.
I quite like his taste in screensavers.
I'm guessing the plsstic is acting as reinforcement as the top plate would be weakened with that much slottage....
I just made "slottage" up.......sounds dirty.
Given PL12D's etc are now upwards of 120 quid this wss a steal.
I note in the info posted in post 8 the replacement of a diamond Flipover stylus.

I was always working on a budget in the early 90s and lucked in on a very cheap pair of Celestion SL6s.
Partnered with a Harmon Kardon 665 and a Marantz CDP i was treated to good sounds for not much...
