It was around 1970 and I was skint. I should have waited and spent a couple of quid more on a Teleton SAQ-206B. Plenty of those still going strong!

All I can say to this is, when all else fails read the instructions!

Rare in the UK, Rectilinear Research speakers from America. They made some decent loudspeakers, but these look as though they may go for a song as nobody here knows what they are. Collect from Hereford.

I'd have these if I was nearer! :)
Rare Metrosound electrostatic hybrid speakers. Seller doesn't know what they are, the tweeter was a flat electrostatic driver. There was a larger version too as I recall, I wonder if these actually work?

The 'elac' unit looks like an ordinary speaker in the photos? I presume its behind the wadding in the photo.
Maybe he changed the listing. They both look like full range drivers to me.Quote:
