Lowther Acoustics

£5 Punt turns out they are Lowther Acoustics saw the celestion drivers thought why not I think one driver needs to be realigned as coil rub think they were stored in a shed or something rotated 180 deg if that works if not off to my tech are they a prototype quite heavy

Thanks all

Those are Lowthers?

Not aware of any Lowther speakers that use Celestion drivers rather than Lowther.

Update from Lowther



We suspect that this may be a self-build cabinet. Lowther supply plans for enthusiasts to build their own. It appears that someone may have decided to use Celestion Drive Units rather than Lowthers. The larger unit is certainly a similar shape to Lowthers pre 1970 and they briefly experimented with a rubber surround.

How big are they?

Did someone take an Acousta cab and just fit a front baffle and those drivers onto it?

Acousta cabs are about the size of a larder fridge. I've still got one which someone has cut out to take a 12'' bass driver to make a passive sub.

A friend of mine had a pair of genuine Lowther Acousta horn-loaded speakers, fitted with the Lowther PM6A drive unit. The weren't small, but there wouldn't be much width into which to fit a 12" drive unit.
