Yes - the quilted front is a bit 'tacky'.

Sadly not Tannoys according to the listing but Wharfedales which changes the equation rather a lot ... if they were corner GRFs which at first glance they appeared to be well now that really would have been a bargain.

I think they may be Tannoys. The cabinetry looks right, even though the grille cut-outs are unfamiliar (could be pretty early, Silvers/Reds?). The Wharfedale Airedales I've seen have the grille cloth extending across the minor side angles.

Ive seen airdales like that before

Strange. I just looked at the listing again and the picture showing the speakers has disappeared. Maybe whoever is selling is also reading our chat.


By the way. The vintage Airedales I know look like this:

Note the vents to the top and main driver low down, plus the grille covered top openings.



Just checked again and the speaker shot is back. Weird!
