I still think they're volt. I think they have a roll surround and David was in the Mega circle at that time.

I'm with Tony on this one, sorry Ian! They look like Volt to me too.
But £300 for that lot works out at less than £20 per driver, not including the cabs, HF and flares. A total bargain... as long as they're all working.

Robbo, do you remember Nick Cohen. He ran AMS. Artist Monitoring Services. He specialized in cabs with multiple small speakers which were Volts.
