Anyone ever heard them. These are 3 way coaxes. Look nice. I'll post impressions after I hear them.

Is that the ones with the round plastic whizzer and the orange accordian surround? I had a pair of those. I ran them on an open baffle and they sounded o'kay. Not the last word in detail resolution or openess though.

Right; mine looked exactly the same except twelve inch woofer. They had that mid-range but a different high freq horn.

Did they have a plastic whizzer or a horn?
What was the model number of yours?

They had a round horn loaded mid and small tweeter horn like the T 35. The magnets were alnico. Truthfully If I named the model number it might not be accurate since it's been a while since I sold them. I thought they had a nice presentation but somewhat limited on the extremes. And that slightly cardboardy sound on the bass. Your set might be different; the 15" is; I am told a better unit. What do you hear?

Sounds like a plan.
