Just a week after buying myself mondo huge Technics speakers, I came across a second similar set in a different thrift store. These were Technics SB-2745 speakers. They had similar characteristics to my larger
Technics SB-2845 speakers. However, these speakers had a pronounced duct at the bottom.

Like my speakers, the Technics SB-2745 speakers were 200 watt speakers. While the cabinets bore the scars of a long life, the cones and surrounds looked good. If the sound quality came any where near the quality of my SB-2845 speakers, then someone found a great deal!

The frequency response curves looked similar to those of my Technics speakers. These would definitely rock the house! Like most Technics gear, these speakers probably don't get the respect they deserve. Here is a discussion on
Audiokarma.org. However, I suspect that they are probably much better than the average modern stereo speaker.
As this
audioholic found, people who stumble across these speakers and hook them up are surprised and pleased!
I have a pair of these exact model speakers and added a couple ELAC- B6 bookshelf speakers. I am now in the market for purchasing a good receiver/amp that has A + B channel configs and has plenty of power to push both sets. I am also looking for a receiver that has the connectivity to both Bluetooth and WIFI. Right now, I am leaning towards the Yamaha R-N303 receiver. I am open to any suggestions though.
