Hi A,
Hmmm... I have lived in Seattle since the 60s and sold audio in Seattle since the 70's and don't believe I have ever seen "Seattle Sound" speakers sold in this area, which is a bit odd, if they were indeed made in or for the Seattle market! These were either a house brand, made for some now defunct stereo shop like Pacific stereo, Silo or the like, or most likely, what we call a "van" speaker, so called because they are often sold out of the back of a van or pick up for whatever the guy in the vehicle thinks he can get for them. These guys have used many names for their speakers over the years just so they would be impossible to track down should you have a problem. That could explain why it's hard to find any info on them. They are rarely any good and usually quite cheaply made. If I could see them in person, I could tell you for sure. Are you in the Seattle area by chance? If so, you could contact me when I return to work, this coming Tuesday, at Definitive in Seattle. In any case, whether you like them or not, be careful how loud you play them. You won't be able to find any exact drivers for them should you damage one!
Good luck and let me know if I can help. Tom
