1974 2x12" on the 'bay?

Post by Stu_R »

Can someone educate me about these?

It briefly crossed my mind, considering the price at the mo, to put in a cheeky bid to get hold of the speakers as spares, but then noticed the 8ohms?
I'm guessing, as in guessing, that was to make the cab 16 ohms as a 2 speaker job for a slighter smaller, slightly louder stack along with a 4 x 12"?

besides the badge, yes they should be.

SE2123, SE2124, SE2125 were standard production 2x12 PA monitors.

The question is, what dimensions are they and would my Crescendos sound ok in them?
