in Vintage Speakers
So far these are pretty good sounding vintage speakers. Just wondering what you all can tell me about them. They seem pretty flat with a bit of boost in the high end. Anyone know what the crossover point is?
Any help appreciated.

    That little speaker sounds good to me.

    What kind of receiver or amp are you powering them with?
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Do they have the square tweeters or the rectangular ones?

    Specifications changed as designs morphed from the original. This brochure gave the crossover at 4500 Hz.:

    Then later they came out with the 4A and 4.5 with a different tweeter which was square rather than rectangular
