They could be Linton 2's, as they had similar chamfers around the grilles :)

We used to sell those stands and I believe they were height adjustable too. for the life of me I can't remember what they were -

got it - "Activity Play..."

Don't worry what they are chaps i wanted them for the visual appearence, speaker stands lift speakers off the floor to a required height, thats what they do, all the crap that comes with what they sound like i'm not intrested in.It's an appearence/vintage requirement..They are under Ditton 15's your right Marco.Doesnt say anything in my early 70's hi-fi mags about speaker stands having a sound i must believe this is true :)

The thought had passed my mind, infact i went to look at a pair some time back, way too big for my living room which is not funny :( I got shut of the B&W 'DM2a' cos they were too big.
