    That's a very early version of the MiniMonitors.
    Just the thing for your Chevy Van in 1977.

    I would love to have a pair of those.

    They are rare and these seem to be in good condition. If I recall I think Russman has or had a pair of these. I consider these more collectible than functional speakers. Is anyone here going to bid on these?

    Cool speakers. I have never seen them before. Seems like the peerless tweeters would be worth the price alone. If I didn't already have so much........

    I did, I donated them to the Polk display at HQ in Baltimore. You are about right on collectible vs functional. The foam on the 4" pr's is usually shot, and hard to get a match on for replacements.

    Got me thinking a couple months ago, if the new VM series drivers would work in the small cabinet......
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.
