JPW AP1 Speakers

On loan from a friend while he is on holidays is a pair of JPW AP1 speakers. These speakers were rated as a best buy in Britain during the mid 80's due to their quality components and the low retail price.

From what I read the PW stood for "prison workers" in the fact that these were made by inmates. I don't know how true that story is.

The AP1 is a simple acoustic suspension featuring Seas/Vifa woofers and tweeters, air core inductors and what looks like a 1st order cross on the woofer and a second order cross over on the tweeter, there is a resistor to tame the Vifa D 19TD tweeter.

This pair had been re foamed in the past 5 years.
