AudioFile 830 LR RestoMod Speakers (Pair)
BASS REFLEX TOWER 8 inch 3 way speakers. These AudioFile 830 LR Loudspeakers are a RestoMod Project that is coming up soon. It's a pair of vintage bass reflex "white van scam" speakers, also sold under the brand name "Denmark", approximate era: 1990's. The cabinets and grilles are in very good condition.
This speaker project hasn't been planned just yet. Current pricing is reflective of what I have into them "AS IS" and a negligible 25% markup.

How Do They Sound?
I've hooked them up and listened for several hours. They surprisingly sound quite nice and the cabinets seem well built, on par with any other commercial mass market speakers. From what I can tell it seems like fairly thick MDF with vinyl woodgrain covering. They have fairly good basic design characteristics including flush mounted drivers, a flared bass reflex port and 5 way binding posts.
They sound pretty well balanced, with a slightly warm, bassy sound. While the tweeters are aluminum, they sound very smooth without any harsh tones, and the midrange and dual woofers seem to be matched good. I have not measured them, but I have listened to them at length and actually like them enough to give them a spot in the office for frequent listening. I have not driven them hard, but I have listened at moderate volumes without any issues. Perhaps the most notable thing is they sound better pulled out away from walls and corners, likely due to the rear firing port.
