Interesting Auction...
« on: 7 Apr 2003, 10:08 pm »
Anyone want a couple scopes as well as a pair of Shahinian's?
Auction has quite a picture, but frankly the entire auction description is a riot.
I never realized how huge the Shahinians were either.

While I'm at it, another interesting pair of speakers.

And another:

And another that I'd strangely love to hear:

Frightening.  George Forman Speakers.

Don't look at all like modern Shahinians---

Edit----Actually they are Cosmostatic speakers

The link says that Shahinian designed the woofers for the speakers. I guess the bottom DOES look like a Shahinian, but Cosmo put that R2D2 stat array on top.

Hey, there are TWO PAIR of these incredibly rare speakers on eBay--

This auction includes interesting paperwork, but price is $22,000 just for speakers. These had been part of a $57K package

Both of the round speakers DO have some pedigree--the taller ones are Audax who still makes drivers (and maybe speakers for all I know) and the smaller ones are from Jim Rogers (of LS3/5 fame).
