Never mind the shiny dustcaps. Some excellent speakers have used them. JBL and Fostex drivers for instance. The Isophon stuff is first rate. Those midrange units were getting on for £100 a pair new.

Have to say I didnt either. Most of the stuff is pretty run of the mill
Now this is far more interesting, and well priced. :)

Thirty five years ago, I bought a virtually identical cabinet via a local noticeboard. The contents were a white Garrard 301 with SME 3009 and Shure V15, Leak Troughline tuner, Point One preamp and Stereo 20 power amp, all in mint condition. At the time, what is now regarded as 'classic' gear was just thought of as old hat. The whole lot cost me £25! (£25 back then was a fair amount, but it was still a bargain)
Me too, about the same time, bought from a second hand shop in Edgware near the junction of Station road and the Edgware Road. Same cabinet, but containing 2 x Quad II power amps, Quad 22, Quad FM1 and stereo decoder. I can't remember what the turntable was, don't think it was anything special. Whole lot was also £25.
