Goldstein Acoustics Coherent Imaging Model 10 Speakers – Any Info or Testing Advice?

Dear all,

I hope you're doing well!

This morning I noticed some folks clearing out a nearby house, and while having breakfast, I saw a pair of speakers placed in a “free” pile, each labeled with “FREE” on top. I picked them up about 10 minutes ago and thought they might be useful, as I currently don't have any external speakers in my apartment.

I know very little about speakers or how to test them safely, especially since these came without any wires. We do have a record player at home, so it would be great to try them out if I can figure out what's needed. I'd appreciate any advice on what cables or equipment I’d need to get started and how to avoid damaging anything in the process.

The speakers are labeled:

Goldstein Acoustics
Coherent Imaging Speakers - Model 10
Office: 90 Browne, Brookline, MA
Factory: 21 Bismark Street, Bldg 12, Boston

What's especially intriguing is that I couldn't find any information about the company online...no website, no references, nothing. Has anyone heard of them before?

Also, the speaker fabric has a few small cuts. If anyone has tips on how to repair that, I'd love your input.

Photos below. Thanks in advance for any thoughts!

@jasonbourne52  - I’m writing this from my couch, sitting in the sweet spot, and experiencing the best sound I’ve ever heard from external speakers.

Marshall Simpson, the owner of Everla$t Speaker Repair, worked his magic in just a couple of hours. He transformed these magnificent speakers.... which I found for free on the side of the road.... into something incredible. The clarity and detail are unlike anything I’ve heard before!

I had some trouble uploading photos directly to the forum (aspect ratio issues and all that), so I’ve shared pictures and a video on Imgur instead:

These speakers are truly amazing!

Also, I just picked up my first-ever receiver... a used Technics.... so I’m officially starting to feel like a real audiophile now.
