cam99 Posted April 5, 2022 Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) I’ve come across a pair of tower speakers. The heaviest things I’ve had the pleasure to lift & move. Normally I Google search and I can find details, but this time I’m coming up blanks, so I thought I’d reach out and see if any details ring any bells. Previous owner thinks the speakers are Australian made approx 2010. Can anyone assist with any details ? Or guesses Edited April 6, 2022 by cam99 Removing incorrect detail 1
Guest Posted April 5, 2022 Posted April 5, 2022 Not heard of them myself, but they look much greater than a typical white-van unknown brand speaker. Suggest a bespoke, custom Australian speaker builder and look well built. Likely no longer in existence. They look like Dyn or Morel midbass drivers, with a Scanspeak tweeter, and the crossover looks to be substantial by the housing it's in. How do they sound? 2

Southie Adam Posted April 5, 2022 Posted April 5, 2022 Wow, bit of work went into these. I like the waveguide routed out of the front panel. Looks cool. 1

Definitely no sub required. Spent a few hours today, just pulling out fav CD’s and discovering sounds in favourite tracks I’ve never heard before !!! Amazing vocals and beautiful midrange. But my goodness they are big & heavy, have to think seriously about where I could put them & lobby dear wife to keep ‘em. Super happy to get in contact with creator 3
