The thread starts ….. I managed to bag a pair for £103 delivered. I’m delighted and over joyed. They are a bit tatty but I think this could be my next restoration project now that the Garrrad 301 is very very nearly finished.

The thread starts ….. I imagine there are a few people here who will remember celestions as being pretty common a couple of decades ago. It seems their popularity has waned throughout the years, though based on the quality of these examples I cannot think why. When you take into account the age of these […]
Dave Smith writes: Much of this problem comes from all the so called ebay vintage HiFi ‘experts’ who are asking ridiculous amounts for things like the Celestion HF2000 tweeter. I purchased one last week for £30 outside of ebay yet when listed on ebay they’re asking stupid amounts for them. The HF2000 tweeter is a […]

John Atkinson writes: “Why does John Atkinson devote so much of his time to loudspeakers selling for under a [sic] $1000?” wrote a correspondent to The Audiophile Network bulletin board in August, there being a clear implication in this question that “more expensive” always equates with “better” when it […]
The thread starts ….. I rescued one speaker from a charity shop skip today. They said only one had been handed in and I could have it. Who hands one speaker in to a charity shop? Aaaw it looked so lonely and its the first version with the copper tweeter. Mint front and drivers thanks […]

The thread starts …… Recently I picked up a very nice pair of these on ebay for a very good price, including stands. Bought them to use in a second system really, but have tried them in my main system – avondale 250/82 and they are remarkably good! Very smooth and detailed, lovely controlled bass […]

While working on the British Stereo project we started a bit of ‘housework’ re tidying up our Celestion archive.

The thread starts …. Hi all, I have my Celestion 551’s back in the house, along with it 10 inch bass bins, and it has got me thinking. The speakers are 34 years old but all the cones seem to be in good working order. The crossovers have capacitors in them. They still sound good […]
The thread starts ….. When i bought my Celestion 33s, both tweeters were blown. Bass & mid are marked 4 ohms. Tweeter is unmarked but a spec sheet confirms 4 ohm too & I also managed to get a reading of 3.4 ohm from one of the voice coils. To get the 33s up & […]
The thread starts ….. Was just thinking about how some speakers go for surprisingly really high prices on Ebay.. These Celestion SL12s for example – granted I’ve never seen them before apart from in an old magazine – currently at £620. Double bass driver versions of the SL6. Wouldn’t an SL600 be better (allbeit without […]
