Quite fancied having a punt on these and getting them restored and back in good order. Trouble is I reckon at the very least they have blown the HF diaphragms in the dual concentrics in the Panthers. Both types of cab have 15 inch drivers rather than the 18s that the seller seems to think. My gut just says these have been butchered and buggered beyond redemption. Opinions please one and all.

Do you see it is loaded with Eminence drivers  !!!!!! empty cabs really if someone had the Dual concentric drivers to go in it would be nice system

Better to walk away really, if it does have the Tannoy drivers in the dual concentric's they will be stupid money to fix if buggered and the rest of the system is not in the best condition to be honest.
Never criticise another man until you've walked a mile in his shoes. Once you have, call him what you like, you're a mile away and you've got his shoes!

You know am sure it didn't say Eminence drivers when I first looked. Well whether or not I am a blind old fart there is no way I want it without the proper drivers in, even if they all had to be reconed, we will be giving this one a miss and thanks for all the opinions.
