There is one for sale on FleaBoy @£29.99 (Buy It Now price) - presume that is where the pics came from. Wouldn't hold out for finding a match, though.

For sidefills, can we have two enormous things of a type that might be venerated as Gods by the inhabitants of Easter Island, capable of reaching volumes that would make Beelzebub soil his pants.

That would be a good one for the Museum. Arthur Barns would know, he had Fane in the '60's, not sure whether his sons would know anything.

I assume that it is just a simple phenolic dome tweeter under that front. Alnico magnet though.
They dont seem to worth anything,one sold last year for just a pound! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FANE-ACOUSTICS-H-F-UNIT-MODEL-no-301-/130850901523?nma=true&si=EOXor36GAMOY%252BCyvnmC7835KxEM%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 |

Hello,
Yes it has been over five years, but good things come to those... I've just been clearing out the attic and I have found a pair of these as well as a pair of the Richard Allan mid units that came with them (one of which needs a new coil). If anyone is interested then give a shout. Apparently similar to some Celestion tweeter from back in the (good old) days. Regards, Tom.
