Big Fisher speakers ?
#3

Fred, Mike is right (I hate to agree)! It really all depends on how it sounds to you. They look like quality speakers and of course designed for best performance in their own cabinets. You have a great chance for them sounding great. A much better chance than sourcing individual speakers (new ones) and trying to make them sound good. Construction of cabinets and speakers is an art to make them work well. Some great sounds out of some of the 60s consoles with really cheap speakers but a lot of design work for the cabinets of the consoles. Just listen to them.
Best, Jerry
