KLH Computer controlled speaker info wanted

Hello
I have a pair of KLH 3 Vintage computer controlled speakers.
I found these at a Goodwill,with the computer that goes with them.
They have a very real like presence to the sound and good detail,very musical,First rate build too. The magnet on the 6.5 driver is as wide as the whole cone.

Anyone out there familiar with this line of speakers from KLH?
Please tell me what you know about them.
Thanks

These are the best speakers KLH every made. They were made in 1980,1981. There are 3 modals in the series -- KLH1,KLH2 and KLH3. It is my understanding the drivers were custom made by Peerless for KLH. I own 2 pairs of the KLH1's, and one pair of the KLH2's. These speakers are very rare, they show up every once in a while on audiogon and eBay and they are usually dirt cheap. I always a jump at the chance to buy them. They are suberb. And they work fine wihtout the computer. More info _http://www.classicspeakerpages.net/library/klh/klh-1_series_klh-1_klh-2_kl/klh-1_series_feedback.html

Ya,I have the small KLH 1's with the computer and a set of 2's with no computer.They are very good and would sound best with a Dark sounding amp.They're on the bright side. The magnets are HUGE on them, and they will take alot of power too. Very cool speakers.
