Fisher XP-12 speakers - 1967- nice
A friend came over today to look at the new OHMs. He says "do you know anything about Fisher speakers ??"
So I answers "yup , they are crap , unless they are older US made ones"
We go out to his truck and there is a large pair of walnut veneer Fisher speakers with original owners manual, dated 1967.
He hauled them in , wired 'em up and my, they sounded OKAY. Looked at the book and they are 3 way with a 12 LF , 8in MF and huge dome HF.
Made in NY. Called XP-12 Consolette.
Well , he worried that although he got a good price, there is a low WAF , since he has big Klipsh speakers.
To make the story short , he left them with me for what he paid. THey will clean up nice, just what I need ....more speakers. Will be forced to flip them , no room for storage. Would be able to live with them otherwise , no problem. Lets see....5 new to me pairs in the last month....:blink:
When will it end ??
Question for Seawolf97...
Do the "fried-egg" tweeters work?
I have the same system with no working tweeters.
I plan to keep the cabinet and install new guts in the future sometime.
I also have no front grills, kind of neat to see what they look like.
Thanks for sharing!
