Bookshelf size speakers wanted

Post by CHR15E » Tue Dec 14, 2010 8:32 pm

I'm after a pair of speakers for my garage, so far off ebay they're either too dear or not local enough.

I'm being farily picky, namely sticking with a few models I know and will be happy with though would be interested in anything with a good reputation.

Speakers I'm looking at already are Eltax liberty 3's as I have a pair already on my TV. Prefer black but would take a beech set.

Wharfedale diamonds, prefer the old stuff. 80s ish, have some of those in the back room and they're fantastic.

Pretty much anything made by Celestion.

I'm looking for smallish speakers, no real restrictions on size as such. Just not looking for floor stander size as they're going on a wall.

Anyone got anything lying about? They don't need to be mint case wise as long as the drivers are sound.

eBay search for Realistic Minimus 7's. I've got several pairs (even one's I bought new when I worked for Tandy).
They're a 40w 2-way, metal cased sealed enclosure speaker. They even did a set with walnut veneered cabinets.

They are great speakers.

I had a pair wired up at the back of the shop and I'd put a pair on, cranked the volume up and told the customer to go and find out where the sound was coming from. Invariably they went searching for large, floor standing speakers.

And no, I don't want to sell any :P
