I need more big speakers like I need a hole in the head, but these aren't far away from me and are calling me very loudly...

They look nice and are of a good vintage... I'd snaffle 'em. What difference will one more pair of shpeeks make, nestling at Smith towers! How many pairs of shoes does yer missus have?

They look in great condition
I'm just happy (so far) that nobody appears to have noticed the speakers that I'm watching on ebay, if they have then they are going to do what I normally do & bid right near the end of the listing
But we'll see
For obvious reasons I won't be saying what they are or linking to them as they are being given away at the starting bid & there isn't one so far
