I've just bought a pair of Bozak B-4000 Symphony speakers from an eBay seller in London.
Collecting them will be fun. They weigh 70kgs each and are 115cm x 70 cm x 40cm. I'll need to collect them from a third floor flat and drag them up to my 1st floor listening room when I get home.
Here's a picture from the eBay listing.
More photos to follow after I get them home...
They have 2 x 12" woofers, 1 x midrange and 8 x tweeters in each cabinet.
I've already joined the Bozak Yahoo group for more information and help on these.
Bozak speakers seem to be rather rare in the UK.
The price I paid for these is about the same as the value of my DMS passive only Briks. I'll be keeping whichever speakers sound better.
The advice I've read so far on these Bozaks suggest the following upgrades:
1 new crossovers as per a Mr Tobin's design.
2 adding a super-tweeter to augment the rather rolled-off response above 12khz.
3 Bi-amping - 1 amp for the woofers and 1 amp for the midrange and tweeters. This is intriguing. I'd be very interested to hear how they'd sound with my ss amp for the bass and my valve amp for the midrange and treble. Could be a great combination.
I'll post the results of my £0.5k heavyweight speaker bake-off in due course...
