Picked up these vintage Namco speakers recently, they have a really nice and warm sound to them.
Should really get them on risers to better aim towards the listening position and get them off the floor.

Reading this excellent edition of Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness again tonight.
Barangers illustrations are truly inspired and really capture the story.
