    Default Guess what speakers they game ?

    I’ve no idea personally but thought we’d have a little game before I open them up and take them to the tip , along with the lone wharfedale W3 /IMG]

    Those old Wharfedale drive units are nice. I'm sure somebody would like them.

    I think the first speakers may be Russian and came with Rigonda stereo systems.
