    I used an Iphone camera . I think you recognized the components.

    At one time this might be considered a dream system. All of these components was purchased prior to 1970.
    Today many of the components are classic, almost priceless.

    The Hartsfield as earlier noted are pre 1957 , which is before Lansing made a change in the horn design to reduce cost.

    These are mono speakers not intended for stereo. This became a problem when mounting tweeters , such as the 175 DLH.

    Why don't you try holding it steady, or go out and buy a superior digital camera made before 1970?
