Nice idea for a thread.
I've asked this a couple of times but NEVER received a response from someone who recalled a system of speakers I once had (of course, there could be other reasons for no responses!). :-)
During the "Quad Days", in about 1976, I had a Pioneer 727 and then a Marantz 4400, which most recall. However, I had a system of ESS speakers that were called Satellite 4's. There were four small 6" drivers in separate boxes for FR, FL, RR, and RL and a 12" bass-reflex speaker. All were run through an outboard cross-over box which ran into the receiver/amp. Kind of a precursor to subwoofers and outboard crossovers more common today. I still have two of the satellites and the bass reflex. The crossover box got lost in a move and I gave two of the satellites to a friend a long time ago. Anyone remember these? Love to find the original X-over box to re-create a retro system some day!
