I just found a pair of Monitor 4.5's at a thrift store in great shape but I'm unable to find any specs on them.

I would appreciate any info and opinions on them.

Thanks in advance.

    Just stumbled across mention of the 4.5 in the Monitor parts list.

    So yeah, congrat's on your 4.5's.

    Would it be possible to snap a few pictures and post them?

    Saw this post, so I thought I would dig out my 4.5s. I am the original owner, bought new, still have the box and brochures. They are nice speakers, I used them daily for 15 years, but they were replaced by some old Spendors and have been stored these last few years. Should probabaly clear them out, but still have the good memories....
