Right. My dad had these old speakers as part of his 2k setup which he sold instead of giving me about 8 years ago. He bought the system sometime in the 80s I think. I know the ancillery stuff was from Arcam but my dad and more importantly me cant remember what the speakers were. I remember they sounded good and its now more curiosity than anything. So here, I've scanned in a picture that I found them to be in. Any ideas? |

The cd rack looks a little lite and I'd LOVE to get some of those vintage speakers with the pictures of bears on the front of them! |

Hmm. You're confusing me Nuck. Its no sale just want to know what speakers my dad used when i was a kid, brings back good memories. I dont think he ever took speaker covers off & its only pic i can find. I suppose its a different than usual post for this forum. As i said, a bit of a mission lol. |

They don't look like Mission's, JJ. Just to muddy the waters further. |

Aha. The title isnt implying they're missions. Its a mission for us lot to try and find out what they are. Hell doesnt look to promising. I've just ordered some Tannoy Sensys DC1s :D :D |

. Maybe a psychic could help. Do we need to contact your dad on "the other side"? Where's Art Bell when your really need him? |

Maybe a pyschic could do the trick. Ha, my dad needs to be brought to our side and reintroduced into the world of audiophile. Its a shame because he has so many cds and doesnt have a system to play them on. |
