mimalmo Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 No other pictures or description? They remind me of something Atlantic Technology would build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K5SS Posted March 23, 2018 Author Share Posted March 23, 2018 The owner took a photo of the back of the 2 subwoofers and they said Fosgate FS-400. There were no photos of the back of the 5 speakers. I haven’t received a response for more photos. They looked interesting at $600 for 5 speakers and 2 unpowered subwoofers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frzninvt Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Fosgate was good gear back in the 80's and 90's. The components look like they are good quality. I would jump at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimalmo Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Yep, Fosgate made some nice stuff back then. You could get this to match the speakers. https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/ele/d/fosgate-audionics-560-high/6512740591.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlthess40 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 They made some kill gear back in the 80’s when they were trying to get into the home audio market. They have and still make great car audio. But I think the company changed hands and then stoped trying to break into the home audio And if I remember right, they lost a lot of money trying to do this Buy buy buy. You can’t go wrong with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see a WTW arrangement with a couple of tweeters in the middle, and none of the drivers are close to each other. I just see lobing problems all over the place. With no replacement parts and 1980's tech (subs have come a long way) I would pass unless they were at a "I have $200 to throw away on an experiment" level.

K5SS Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 I am going to pass, just don’t have the room. Seattle area folk, go grab them: https://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/ele/d/fosgate-surround-speakers-and/6536382743.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
