Dumped in the street - Sansui S55

[cjackson]

Hi Guys,

Was on a walk to the post office when I walked past a house with some Sansui S55 Speakers outside, obviously I grabbed them. I have gotten them home and unfortunately one of the speakers has a 12.5" Woofer missing, only the tweeters are present.

I havent plugged them in yet as it started raining on the way home with them so letting them dry out a bit - the cabs seem in quite good condition - what would be the best thing to do with these beasts ? . I must say these speakers are enormous.

I was thinking maybe build them up and keep them as spares ?

Thanks

Chris

Sansui were famous for their amplifiers and tuners (as well as an excellent budget turntable in the shape of the SR-222).

Their speakers? Not worth saving.

Last time I park my car outside my house if that means it's a free for all!

I bet some poor person was just giving their treasured Hi-Fi room a spring clean and polishing up their bass-drivers when they went back outside to get their vintage Sansui cabs only to find they'd gone...

As here, the clue is in the quote...

Apologies for not being clear; I was making a rhetorical question in the spirit of humor. Otherwise I'm off to the opticians too.
