Hello

Just bought a pair of speakers - they are heavy like a rock (complete made of metal) - it's a 2-way speaker system, got connectors for ??? at right and left side ... and I was wondering if they where a part of a boombox. They reminds me a bit of the speakers series Pioneer produced in early 80's for car-hifi ...

- Who know these speakers?
- Who know more about them?





Thanks & best wishes

I found something

But I cannot believe it - this should be car-speakers! No normal car, van or pickup could take those speakers - they are simply to big! Other point, for the hatrack they are much to heavy - it would brake! So please, any more infos???

In fact they have a massiv handle (metal!) I would say this must be for a kind of mini-PA, or other stage-stuff, but for this they have to less power ...

That's what I have found:
TS-Z80 +++ PIONEER +++ Speaker - Car +++ 1980-1985 +++ Description: 6.5" WOOFER/1" TWEETER/2-WAY/ALUMINUM DIE-CAST CABINET, ~~60P

Best wishes

That model number may have been reissued to the car speakers many years later within Pioneer's nomenclature.
