Does anyone like vintage speakers?


I am surprised that there is a renewed interest in vintage electronics from the "golden age" of "HiFi". But I see little interest in period speakers. Without the speakers you really can't recreate the sound.

HI,

I have a pair of Klipsch Cornwalls from 1979. I wouldn't trade them for anything. They are dynamic, musical, and present a wide soundstage with good imaging. The 15" woofer has a visceral impact a lot of modern stuff with 6, 7 or 8 inch woofers can't match.

hi,

When I was in my teens ( a long time ago, about 1960 ) my father and I bulit two Karlson enclosures and used a pair of EV 15trx coaxial speakers driven by two Knight Kit 20 watt mono amps. I wish I had them today.
