An S50 which is similar got tested on ASR

I do like Amir’s no nonsense reviews!

“I thought of sitting on it for the rest of the listening tests but got worried as to what might hatch under me.” :lol:

I may well have a cheeky bid, could be fun!

I used a pair for years for rear surround effect in my Dolby surround system.

Not really but at the 99p asking price, they are OK.

This is much better, from the same era.

Asking price is ludicrous but those tall cabinets are fetching good money on their own and are pretty rare. Wouldn't mind one myself.

This is outrageous cool.

Worth the money provided it actually sounds OK and that dodgy creased driver is actually alright for all intents and purposes.

They went for about nine quid plus the petrol money so I passed - I’m sure I will get over the disappointment eventually! :lol:

The KEF 105s went for £621. Not sure if that’s good or not, but seems a lot of speaker for the money.
