The 7U's do not have the same drivers as the Linbrook monitors. The 7U's use the Scanspeak Revelator tweeter while the Linbrooks use the Seas Millenium. They both use two of the Seas 7" midbass drivers. I am not sure when they were first produced, but they were current until the Decade line came out. The newer production models had the grills attached with magnets while the older ones were held on with velcro dots. They were a slim floorstander that sounded pretty decent and had bass down to about 40 hz or so. They were front ported and should work well in a smallish to medium sized room.
