Mystery Fisher Stereo speakers

From UFO@21:1/5 to All on Wed Nov 27 13:26:29 2024

Trying to ID the model for these Fisher
floor speakers, so far no luck.

So far closest match is a DS-176

but this seems to be unique due to the 2 controls near the
response chart.

Speaker Terminals are the red/black press type.
I have a post on AudioKarma site but so far no ID.

I don't believe Fisher ever used piezo tweeters. These seem to be
modified by their owner. I worked for a large Fisher dealer when these
were on sale.

Yes, the AK posts seem to say that someone
replaced all the speakers so none are the original Fisher.

The (2) controls near the response chart seem to make it a unique
model according to my image searches.

There is no model tag anywhere.
