    Clarity is OK Dan, but I wasn't really keen. To me they just sounded like what they are. Tiny speakers. They were just something I picked up at a boot sale out of curiosity.

    Hi Taz

    Their an interesting design but worth what i payed for them - sound wise good for their size i tested them with "Dark Side of The Moon" and was quite taken with the clarity as Geoff has stated their is no low bass but its very light but its noticeable but the instrumental detail is clean verdict i will keep them as they are too cute not too apparently the cone magnet is nearly the size of the cabinet.

    Theirs a pair on eBay ending today @ £29 its a BIN price so take a look and give them a go if you want to if not i will put an offer in for these too great for the money ideal for my just put something on to play music with no fuss.

    If it's of interest. The drivers would probably work rather well in a small horn or OB speaker.

    They'll be nice quality. Quite likely made for Technics by Coral or Foster (Fostex).

    Thank you for the info Dan, i've just bought a pair of technics ca-1060s and will give these a try for now. Thanks for the pointer and I'll keep an eye out for some in the future. They look like they would work really well as rear surrounds for a av system

    Nice set of tangent speakers. These were quite good if memory serves.

    Wharfedale Dovedale III crossover. £50 for one!! Barmy. That's about all I'd pay for a complete pair of the speakers.
