Sounds like car audio mumbo jumbo ! 2000W PMPO [2 ohms, 1kHz, THD 99% For one nanosecond before self destruction.] :lol:
Only place I know of... Could be worth asking the price for one ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rogers-Chart...item41726610c8Quote:

Are you sure? I seem to recall the T27 and the HF2000 both having similar sized dome/surround widths. I believe the dome sizes were 19mm.Quote:

Any good though ? They share DNA with Ditton 66 by the look of it.Quote:

Another pair of LS3/5a speakers at daft money. Asking £1800 and no bids yet, finishing very shortly. Hope nobody buys them, they just ain't worth it!!!!

I've heard these. Very potent speakers and quite like the Ditton 66 in character. Hardly surprising as the drivers are similar apart from the 10" width of the bass and ABR. All from Celestion.Quote:

Will dig them out and give them a go.
I've just measured them. The dome is indeed around 19mm but the roll surround brings the overall diameter to 27mm. I can't be sure those LS3/5a grills will clear them. Happy to be told otherwise.Quote:

Nothing amazing but hard to say no if your local surely ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Arcam-Alph...item27d85c14ef
The vendor doesn't mind a courier collection :eyebrows:Quote:

Dantheman on his Ditton 44's IIRC.Quote:

Apparently these are "high end". That would be why they're £29.99.
(not sure what they're the "high end" of mind you, a dog turd maybe?)

Remember hearing a pair of these a decade ago. Must say I enjoyed their warmth and easy sounding presentation.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Spendor-S8...item35cc4237f9
Dude, those look cool man :)

Perfect for a second/third/bedroom/kitchen system... Sounds seductively sweet with a decent pair of acoustic suspension / infinite baffle bookshelf speakers.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Marantz-20...item3a854e35ee
I've got the smaller siblings [APM22ES] which are good, I expect these are equally capable and will be a bargain if they stay under £100 IMO.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-APM-6...item2582f26b05
Wouldn't mind a pair if only I had the room!

Are these any decent chaps?

Must be the "high end" of the bottom! They were made by Goodmans actually and probably sound OK for a budget speaker.Quote:

A decent looking pair of quite rare Tannoy Audiometric speakers. These are NOT dual concentrics, they have a 12" bass driver and a 2" pressure unit (tweeter). In Liverpool.
What's the betting somebody pays silly money for them thinking they've got themselves a great pair of classic Tannoys. Personally I'd say anybody paying more than £100 would be daft. They might just be worth having for the Chatsworth 'lookalike' cabinets I suppose.

Can't argue with that postage cost ;)Quote:

These look cool & cool price too.

Another bit of loony pricing. A Micro Seiki 'Solid-1' turntable at £365!!! This was a budget TT and is worth £50 tops!

What are these like?
