    These could be nice, 15" University (Altec) coaxial drive units. I had the 12" versions and they sounded very good. Steve at 'Hi-Fi Hangar' is a decent bloke!

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I see 'bigears-audio' seems to be getting a bit greedy. £775 for a pair of Tannoy Eatons!

    They have what look like spatter marks on one cone and glue marks on the other cone, both of which are a bit faded and the grille cloth is non original by the look of it. I sold a tidier pair on eBay not long ago for £390, which was about the right price.

    They are likely to have been made for Audio Dynamics Corp. (ADC), by an outside company. The tweeter looks rather familiar, I believe its a version of the cheapo unit used by Bolivar (JBL) and Studiocraft (Bose) amongst others and it did not sound very good, I had a pair of loose new ones and also a pair in my Studiocraft 220 speakers. These look as though they've been partly doped with bituminous material, probably to damp the coarseness. The bass driver may be a KLH or AR unit by the look of it, probably decent enough. I'd give these a miss though.
