What is that outfit even? Was that swim-wear? Enjoy the article.ĭownload the complete 36pp 1957 Cabinart catalog (presented in three parts due to size) Strange thing is: there must have been an installer or shop in this area that was really pushing these 1201As back in the day as these are the 3rd and 4th that I have turned up in this county in just the past two years.Ībove, maybe poor apparel choice for soldering-times. Put on some Thomas F Browne and it was fantastic. I salute you, sir… Anyhow, brought ’em home and the speakers sound good, INSANELY loud with minimal wattage.

I was invited to pull them out and turns out that they had GE full-range 1201A 12″ broadcast drivers in them.Ībove, from the GE “Audio Data Book” circa 1955 As I was leaving I noticed a pair of circa 1955 full-range DIY’d corner speakers in the 30-yard container outside. And so much assembly/work to be done by the user! I was at a yard sale this past weekend… do I even need to mention this point… lured there by the promise of “Audio equipment.” This equipment turned out to be a bunch of radio shack garbage circa 1980 and a pair of overpriced BOSE speakers (btw have you seen the T+E bit where they mock BOSE? Amazing…).
