    Default Technics horn speakers?

    I spotted these whilst browsing yesterday. Technics SST-1 horn speakers. Never seen them before, obviously plastic and not exactly big. They won't go very deep in the bass, but could be fun.

    They're supposedly quite good and I believe there was a matching subwoofer, too. However, if we're talking Technics horn-loaded speakers, these float my boat rather more...



    For scale, that's an 18" bass driver!
