The speakers are Coral 12TX triaxials. according to the seller's story they were built for a Vietnam soldier by his dad before he even knew what would go in them...

The seller goes on about putting different speakers in, making the openings 15" but I don't get it, it's some really nice walnut and I think the speakers are just fine for 16 ohm triaxials in that space.

Here is the console cabinet, empty and redy for components...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Solid-Black...r-Buffet-Options-Endless-Lumber-/111213268415

It's like $344 and shipping for the items all together and a nice job by somebody who was giving his son a gift after returning home from the war and had just the college shop to work with, I think.

For around the mid-sixties that is a nice bit of work.

Those Corals would be some nice listening if they work.
