    I remember hearing these back when they were being made and didn't like them much.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Perfect working order it says and is probably right then, nothing to believe otherwise from the photos. Having said that, some people don't notice when a coles tweeter doesn't work. Confusing thing is it says the drivers were replaced by spendor, yet the photos show the originals which I very much doubt Spendor would provide - perhaps these photos were taken before they were replaced and now have the later mid/bass drivers. Shame I've already spent my disposable income for the month - best leave the rest for rent etc I suppose

    Ive had a pair {ive had every original castle model} I still prefer the 'Dover' from that era..The insaine thing about The old castles from the 70's/80's they fetch very little money but would see off many other speaker from those era's..However i stick with the very first speaker design they made.

    I agree. What a load of waffle.



    I had a pair of Castles many years ago. Can't remember the model, they looked like these, but without the front lip top and bottom. I didn't keep them long.
