How much do empty Lancasters go for? And these are Lockwoods, one of the finest sounding vintage cabs for Tannoys....re veneer...re formica...Quote:

And I can say that as a Lockwood Major user (with 15" MGs) who's heard umpteen pairs of modern Tannoys. With vintage speakers, sometimes you have to be prepared to put some effort in to get the right rewards... You can't just expect them to be 'plug & play', or for them always to look lovely :)
