    believe they have twin 12" woofers, and supposed to be pretty good.

    Very serious prices for 800 ohm Philips AD9710 drive units being asked these days.

    Glad I got myself a pair of the regular 8 ohm units before they too go sky high. As they will, prices are zooming!

    I remember hearing these at a show in the seventies and being astonished at the amount of grunt they had. Albeit rather lacking in neutrality.
    I've got a pair of the 3 way versions of these in my garage. They don't work of course. My mate (who's in the trade) had a look at them but said access is so bad in the back of them that it was uneconomical to try to repair them and sadly, I'm not clever enough.

    Gorgeous speakers, very unusual.

    The tweeter housing is a real thing of beauty.

    Beauty is obviously in the eye of the beholder. I think they're hideous! (but look well made)

    Agreed, I also don't like the look of the KEF LS50, but obviously, many do.

    Looks like a small light bulb in the crossover, for compression?
