Stanley F. White - United States Patent

These speakers were purchase brand new in the Mid-1970's by my Father and are in Perfect Working Condition. They are 100% original except for the Black Velcro Pads that hold the Speaker Covers on, and the Speaker Covers themselves. The Shot-Glass Emblems are 100% Original. The Speaker Cabinets are in overall Good Condition, but have normal signs of wear for something that is almost 40 years old. They have been in storage for many, many years, but work perfectly and sound fantastic.

NOTE: These Speakers are rated at 75 Watts R.M.S (See Brochure Below) if you purchase these and connect them to a High Wattage Amplifier, there is a good chance you will blow them up. I will not be held responsible for any damage that occurs to these Speakers after they have been purchased. You have been warned!

ShotGlass™ was introduced to the audience at the Summer CES 1975. It was a breakthrough in HiFi in several aspects: It incorporated a new woofer / midrange system, the ultra-stiff GlassCone™ (pat.). The first modal breakup appeared at 1500 Hz. It was composed of four GlassCone™ systems in a very slim cabinet. It`s spatial reproduction and freedom of coloration was overwhelming. AUDIO, Germany, reviewed: "Suddenly all the instruments seemed to be lightened up brightly...The best amplifiers immediately demonstrated their capabilities."

In 2002, with the latest space-age materials on hand and magnets with much higher field strengths, the GlassCone is even more ahead of it`s time than in 1975. For instance, it is the only woofer/midrange system on the market with quasi-flat geometry covering a frequency band of seven octaves. That`s where 95% of the music plays. Thirty years of constant development of GlassCone technology made a dream possible: The latest design doesn`t even needs a crossover network. This way, the amplifier isn't connected directly to the system. Especially voices sound unbelievable realistic with the 2002 GlassCone.
