Vintage Pioneer Speakers Multicellular Horn 12" Woofers Custom Mahogany Cabinet | eBay

I suppose it's no accident that it's the same dimensions and aspect as the early Magnificent.

Imitation is one of the highest forms of compliment/flattery.

But they only use a single 12" woofer in that thing ?

Ever try a 414 in an 825/828 cabinet?

Until they saw it, or unless you pushed it really hard, most folks would be hard pressed to tell the difference.

More imitation? (at least the 2x12+horn format)

2 Vintage Kenwood Floor Speakers (MV-7) - $175 (Oswego, NY)
2 Vintage Kenwood Floor Speakers (MV-7)

For a buck seventy five, surely worth the trip to have a listen, if close enough...

Probably a very fair deal if they're in good order. They made a larger version with 4 12's also.

Sadly, they're on the shore of Lake Ontario while i'm 20 mins from the PA border.

I won't tell you about the pair of 19's and stack of silver faced technics that was on the Syracuse cracklist for $250.

BUY the Kenwoods then advertise them on Japan Ebay.

Build an adapter plate and give it a whirl sometime, you may well be surprised how all encompassing "most" is.

Now, remember i'm speaking in terms of typical home listening levels, NOT pushing the limits of a normal A7 load.

Doh!

Lots up that way, somebody's got to be close.
No price (against policy)

EV Horns and 15'' Subwoofers

I do like the EV cabs with the aluminum channel trim. No rounded off corners. *They will also hurt you if not carefull.
