The year is 1978 or '79. Good job on identifying the gear Mark.

Dang! Sorry!
There's a barely visible Nak 700 in the picture on the right, too, isn't there?
(just noticed the four knobs -- most of the component is nigh-on invisible -- 1970s stealth technology a la Nak?!)

What kind of mean person would make some poor flunky put an Ampzilla and a Dreadnought on the top shelf?!?!?
You can tell they weren't in earthquake country. -

Never ceases to amaze me.
I couldn't make jack out of that picture. It was too blurry if I tried to enlarge. -
I didn't enlarge -- I just used the Force.
That plus the fact that I spent way too much time hangin' around stereo stores (Soundscape, The Discerning Ear, High Fidelity Center, Gramophone, Ltd., Gordon Miller Music, Stansbury Stereo, Custom Music, and Myer-EMCO, in roughly that order) in those years.

Wow! If you spent equal time in record stores, assuming there were enough hours left in your day to make it equal. You'd probably have mountains of records like George Grand (of Jersey).

There are... quite a few... records here.
Some of them came from Mr. George Grand (of the Jersey Grands), in fact.

Anybody ever heard of these, from Canon, about 20 years ago (not sure of the details)? Downward firing, wide dispersion, or something like that.

Thank you Mr. Hardy! 😉Testing the Canon S-50 was a wonderful exercise in measurements and listening to something different. It is a good concept for some music but with highly flawed execution.
Sounds like it was an intriguing concept, but not really worthy...
BTW, the funky Cabasse speakers pictured earlier were/are La Sphère (not La Spère).Alea jacta est! -

Zoe, our dog has a very high prey drive. If the kitten takes off a cross the room she is in pursuit. We have had to get onto her a few times. Other than that is is very gentle with him.
