    Super Duplex - Barzilay?

    On that big auction site: Super Duplex Speakers

    Those are some nice-looking specimens, although the cabinets look suprisingly small. The baffle board looks to be about 18" wide, and maybe 22" tall? It looks like an overly large port tube though; wonder what that cabinet tunes to?

    Anyone ever owned any like this? They appear to be Barzilay. (Not that anyone with more sense than money would actually pay that much for them!)

    Barzilay without a doubt. They're what i call "the odd ones" as the slots in the grills run horizontally. Typically, or at least more commonly Barzilay boxes with that style grill have the slots oriented vertically.

    A nice empty pair of those just sold for 199 in OH. Barzilay Beautiful Book Matched Walnut Speaker Cabinets 15" Baffles Gorgeous!!! | eBay

    I wonder how much those grills interfered with the HF portion of the 604? and 4 little trinket wood screws screwed into particle board to hold that speaker in place? also I noticed on both examples the large gaps around the cleats for mounting the back panel, that would be rather leaky in my opinion.

    Yep - them are those.
    4.6 CF...hmmm, I wonder how they sounded with a big Vas driver in there, I can't imagine that huge port tube making up for the lack of space in that cab, but I don't know much about cabinet stuff yet.
