Cheap Speaker Test: Lloyd's W20

More thrift shop madness. I picked up a pair of small Lloyd's speakers: model W020. They are feather weight light and have a 5" full range driver in there. They sound just-ok, not that great. Woofercooker track makes these just pop and click, lol. They came with those awful foam-type non-removable grills. Power? ...maybe 10 watts max!

I like the music, what are the names?

1. I Love Big Speakers by Bassboy

2. Ripple in Time by Sleepy Bright Eyes.

You can DL both on your iTunes. :)

Look what they're done. They attached the speaker in from the inside. After I bashed open the cabinet, I found out they were glued, not screwed, GLUED, to the front board.

Needless to say, I proceeded to laugh the evening away. :)

Lol my bassreflex hole is bigger then your speaker

Instead of just simply using 3 small pieces of Velcro, the manufacturer decided to use 1 ounce of glue for the grill.

... which is why these speakers are being made: HORRIBLE manufacturing and HORRIBLE price control.

LOL, long throw. "a reliable 0.05 mm of excursion will have the bass pumping!"

I wonder what it would be like to put some small woofers and cone tweeters in a cheap speaker, and some polyfill?

Sweet! Some of the speakers I had didin't even have boxes, but That was when I didn't know jack shit about speakers lol. My receiver was a KOS (POS) but whst was weird about it was it had an EQ, even for the midrange =O.

I know.

When i was a 10-12 and into my Teen years, I was running an old Realistic amp with a set of Scott speakers on the A side, and a set of Telefunken speakers on the B side, running all four sounded awesome. My friends all thought i had the most badass system! lol
