Title: Old 15” Audax Speakers?
Post by Kevin Ulmes on 08/21/21 at 18:58:22

We’re cleaning out my father in laws house and he has a bunch of old audio gear that I know nothing about. I’m trying to figure out if these Audax A-150X speakers are worth anything and a friend thought they might and suggested I post here to get more info. They are 15” speakers in pretty nice vintage plywood boxes. I attached a few pictures for more detail if it helps.

Or not, apparently I can’t post images until I have 2 regular posts

We’re also trying to figure out if an old Sony feel to reel player would be something we should try to get to someone who would appreciate it. It’s a Sony TC-560. Look for pictures of it a few posts down

I don’t know too much about audio equipment but it always pains me to see people throwing out or scrapping old cast iron wood working equipment, so I figured I’d check here for some of this stuff before we toss it to see if we should put it up locally for someone to enjoy.

And here are the speaker photos. Let’s see if it lets me post them now.

I do not know anything of the tape machine, but that Audax speaker ought to be a good one. It appears to be AlNiCo magnet era, which usually had a good sound. The cabinet may not be serving it to best advantage.

I would hate to see either item go into the dump.
