I have a single Wharfedale speaker made who knows when. It's definitely old--I'm guessing the sixties or early seventies. I don't think it dates to the mono era--I have the feeling that it was part of a stereo pair, with the other speaker having blown up or something. I got it at a charity yard sale because I was curious how good it was. My finding? Let's put it this way--I'd give it One Star. (And, as a character on _Are_You_Being_Served?_ commented, when talking about a one star hotel, "There is no such thing as a no-star hotel." The same thing applies to my rating.)
Who has the oldest speakers?
When my older brother came home from the service in 1971, he had a very large Pioneer stereo system. It came with some very large floorstanding speakers. I don't see him very often, but I saw him last month and to my surprise, he still has the same system, with the same speakers and believe it or not, it sounds great. He takes really good care of the system and it is in immaculate shape. That makes those speaker about 30 years old, more or less.
