    An odd duck

    Well done DIY? With compression driver/potato masher and a 5" cone... sorry, stumped. I am curious also.

    Looks like a DIY corner enclosure with an odd overlapping set of drivers. The potato masher usually links up to a 175DLH which really overlaps the LE5 and 077 alnico. The woofer reminds me of maybe an early LE15 or LE15A but the surround looks like it was replaced with a rubber version.

    Probably worth looking into if just for the parts. The enclosure looks well tuned for sub use though.

    If the price is right go for them anyway. The drivers are worth some serious change.

    What were they asking for as a price? I'd be interested in the tweeters and possibly the horn and driver if there's any possibility of help with getting them and shipping.

    Hey Mech the Ad is down now so I think they're gone. Not a super great deal anyway I think they were like AUD$2K negotiable.

    Yikes, I can see why you declined to go after them.
