NOTE:
This is more or less a copy from my thread on the other forum, I will attempt to post what I can but there are many subsequent posts by people who no longer appear to be active on either forum and the pics they posted at the time are no longer showing. So, very much a work in progress.

I felt somewhat depressed this afternoon looking at my vintage audio bits-'n-bobs lying all over the house and decided its perhaps time to make some changes. So I started to browse through this collection of vintage audio products and perhaps decide whether it's time to get rid of some stuff. I figured over the next few weeks I'll connect various bits & pieces up and try make a heart-rendering decision about what stays, what goes.
So the first items appear as thus:
Wharfedale Super12 RS/DD Full Range Speakers
The Leak Stereo 30 & Troughline FM Tuner are a perfect match and the sound quality is just a little better than average - 10/10.
The Wharfedale 12" Super 12 RS/DD Speakers are mounted in a wooden cabinet as described in one of G.A. Briggs Loudspeaker books. All photos are of my own original units but I have not yet taken a pic of the enclosures, might do that sometime but it is very similar to the Goodmans 212 described elsewhere.
Verdict:
This combo is a keeper and will not be added to the C-A-D pile.
