UNIVERSITY SOUND Model MC8a 8" Fullrange Speaker pair in 100% working condition. Built by ElectroVoice. Both speakers have been treated with several 50/50 coats of a special formulated vintage violin varnish (no poly, pvc, 100% organic) to preserve cones and have phase plugs installed. One cone was damaged, but has been repaired, see pictures. They play and sound fantastic.

Cabinets not included. These are fantastic in OB w/ Eminence 15" woofer. Use a small EL84 tube amp and a 50 W subwoofer amp w/ crossover and they will sing. Speakers were recently treated and need 100 hrs break in to fully bloom. There are other tweeks that could be done to frame/baskets. I will be happy to share with purchaser.

Asking $75 plus Shipping.

Would consider trade for 8" woofers, for typical two way design. I tried these in 1 cuft ported cabinets and they did not work well. Need small bedroom spks.
These need room to bloom, TL, MLTL, rear horn, or OB with sub woofer, work really well with 15" Eminence w/sub amp w/xover and small tube amp...very lovely!
