Description
Vintage Boston acoustic speakers. 2 6.5” woofers in each cab. This is one half of a set - typically there are matching speakers that rest on top of these that carry a mid and tweeter - each woofer has its own 2” port that exits the cab in the rear leaving a very stark - obelisk appearance(HiFi meet sci-fi) . in an all black cab with multiple high quality hook ups in back. If you want these shipped be prepared for it to cost a bit. I’ll need to weigh the cabs again but from what I’ve read online esch one should weigh around 80lbs. I’m accustomed to moving heavy furniture and these things are very heavy. Apparently these speakers were Boston acoustics first venture into high end HiFi - they’re extremely heavy - too heavy to ship really - The cabinets themselves I would say are about an 8.5/10 Here’s a clip from a review - “In early 1991, Boston Acoustics began The Lynnfield Project, an ambitious effort to develop a line of high-end loudspeakers that would push the edge of current loudspeaker technology. The man hired to head the project was Phil Jones, the acclaimed British designer behind the Acoustic Energy loudspeakers. Jones is a leading proponent of metal-cone drive-units, which were used successfully in the Energy line. The Lynnfield Project is a from-scratch effort with custom-made drive-units. The products incorporate many new design techniques, one of which is a revolutionary method of attenuating driver resonances. Clearly, a high level of engineering effort was expended on these new loudspeakers. The 500L reviewed here is the flagship of the line.” “The three-way 500L can be single-wired, bi-wired, or tri-wired. Three inputs are provided, allowing great flexibility in connection. When single-wired, two pairs of jumper plates at the bass enclosure bottom are installed, and four jumper wires connect terminals at the bass enclosure's top to the midrange/tweeter module. Internal wiring connects the bass enclosure's bottom terminals to the top terminals. This wiring can be bypassed by bi-wiring or tri-wiring.” *Shipping rates will be refunded if final costs are below what is paid at the time of transaction*
