Wow! Congratulations! The Autographs trade for anywhere from $7000 to $10,000 here in Japan from used audio shops. It'd be interesting to hear your story on how you got it for free. Tell us about its sound, too, compared to any large format JBLs you know, as I've never heard them.

NICE! I always liked the sound of Tannoy, even though it isnt the same as JBL!

Nice score, Oldmics!

[Oldmics]

Probably the tallest speakers that I have ever encountered

[Steve Schell]

Fantastic score, Oldmics!

And you could hang your clothes in there both for sound deadening _and_ in place of your closets.....

Seriously, though, those are really cool cabinets.

Dood, I am here for you. I'll gladly help you find some room in that shop. Maybe send me those cute little line-arrays or something...

Those things are rated at 10% efficiency, for you SET folks, that has got to be some kind of holy grail.
Nice score.
