Selling my hubby's estate--B&W 805 D3: Speakers or Loudspeakers??

I'm slowly working at sellihg my husband's estate & sometimes find myself with questions. (I posted in the Vintage section earlier about some Yamaha components.) This question is about his prized Bowers & Wilkins 805 D3 Rosenut Speakers with stands that he bought from someoe on this site. When I advertise them, should my heading be something like " B&W (Bowers & Wilkins) 805 D3 Diamond Series Speakers with original stands (Pair)" OR should it instead reference that they're a "2-Way Stand-Mount Loudspeaker System" as is depicted on the box they came in and is the way some people advertise them?? 
When I think of the word "loudspeaker" I either think of HUGE speakers that are used blast music to a large crowd in a huge venue/setting OR I think of a speaker built into the side of a building used for alerts/announcements. For example, our high school superintendent would give announcements every morning & we'd hear them over the loudspeakers in the school. Am I all goofed up?

Thank You!! to everyone who replied to my post. I did take what I think are nice, clear photos (hubby was also into photography). Also, I did mistype when I said "rosenut." I have "Rosewood" in my MS-Word doc. I have already contacted some stereo shops in town and they are not buying. But I live in a small metro area (150,000) so....you know. Also, I do have the original boxes, accessories box w/documentation, etc, 
Thanks again. This has helped!

Thank you tomic601 and cm337 for your replies. I'd like to avoid shipping if I can so I have also advertised in Minneapolis area (the closed BIG metro area about 4  hrs away). Hopefully someone there will see them and want them enough to make the trip here to get them.
