Slate: I found this place when Kim posted a Link on www.vintagehifi.dk to the thread here were Martin KBH shows his "new" Lockwoods (we are opening an English section on www.vintagehifi.dk in short time so people around the world can get help especially regarding old Danish gear
The Speakers construction is from a mathematics teacher and music/hifi nerd called Duelund - You can buy some very expensive electronic components with his name on from a company called duelund coherent audio
You can read about the speakers here:
and here is a exploded view
they measure about 60 x 60 x 130 cm and are quite heavy - it makes the Luxman L58A look very small - even the 40 Kgs Garrard looks small compared to the speakers

Thanks I know about www.vintagehifi.dk but as most of my equipment is still in its teens I only drop by once in a while.
I was considering going to the Hald meet some years back; but in the end I went to the Head-Fi meet in Esbjerg that particular saturday.
Actually there was a third event in Vejle that saturday. Otto was hosting a meet about picture and sound quality; people bringing PS3, various Blu-ray players and plasma screens.... so I had to make a choice

Hi Ruben, what a fantastic looking setupWelcome to AoS chap, i do hope you enjoy your stay! I'd also like to personally thank you for posting up an exploded view of the interior of the rear loaded bass horn. I'm not likely to ever make one, but it gives some idea of the horn length (which is pretty long
) & this provides some kind of efficacy of the horn itself, i'm sure they sound wonderful
ATB to you!
Bests, Mark
