Please identify my rare shelf speakers

paulkomarov · 20th September 2011, 12:53 PM

I got these speakers by inheritance from my good friend.
He said he bought them in a German auction years ago and they are experimental model of a little factory.
Maybe somebody can help with identifying, its a very interesting to know any info about them.
LF and HF drivers are in different housing, active resistance is about 4 Ohm. No phase inverter port in a back, just a solid construction. Absolutely no marks on drivers, huge LF filter coil inside, simple 2nd order (not sure) crossover.
Sounds fantastic with tube amp on vocal and jazz. Solid state perfomance not so good. Photo attached, if you need any other photos just let me know.

Thank you in advance,my friends!!!

Hi Paul,

This is an Etalon ET1, a Hungarian product.

Etalon is one of the most regarded Hungarian brands, and has won many awards in foreign countries.

Regards,
Zoltan
