The NEW generation knows nothing of these early speakers nor do they care. Who's JBL, Altec, Ev etc to them?
The sad thing is we are a dying breed here really. The world has moved on from the stuff we all love. Unfortunately the great speakers of the past are just not many folks cup of tea. What we consider valuable most folks find objectionable. VERY few folks want the sort of speakers many of us have here. Sad but true. IMO most of us will have a hard time selling or even passing on some of this fine equipment.
Home audio may not be dead but it sure isn't running many laps down at the track anymore.
as we've discussed elsewhere here sound bars and HT are what folks want now.
Not big old wooden antique looking boxes in their modern homes.
