I Bought a Jensen Imperial speaker at an "Antique" store for $100.00 It's the size of a large console radio, maybe 36" or so tall..24" width, and 18 deep.It's a Bass Reflex cabinet, with ports on the back. Well...I have to figure out how to get a pic up, but it's a C1400A Serial A4220 with a beautiful 15" PM-15A speaker, and a fairly complicated crossover with many wires, and two leading to the speaker. The workmanship is incredible, all the wires are tied periodically, and done ever so neatly. After an inspection, and everything looks ok, I hooked it up to a vintage sansui receiver, and OH BOY, does it sound sweet. It's only a 50 wpc receiver, but a quarter volume level was LOUD! It came from an estate from a local guy who was in a polka band. Bet this thing has stories. It's black lacquer with the Jensen logo over the black part, so the color is original.

Any info on this guy??

Thanks!
