Corner Speaker Pair with ElectroVoice SP12B Speakers

This pair of corner speakers arrived with a little dust but otherwise in almost new condition.  Here is how they looked when I first got them:

Of course, I took them apart to see what was inside and discovered SP12B Drivers in pristine new condition.  EV manufactured several versions of these over the years.  Here are some photos of the ones in these boxes:

I weighed one of them on a spring scale:

To sound best, they should be positioned in a corner:

These are among the best sounding speakers I have heard.
