There were the first speakers I owned for myself, I remember buying them from a stall in Brick Lane Market, the seller told me that Maudant Short were special because they employed violin makers to make their cabinets.
I bought my pair from an auction for peanuts, I just wanted a ‘big’ speaker for the studio as punters always expect to hear a nice full range sound. The MS700s were absolutely the wrong speaker for this job as they had the fabulous Decca Kelly ribbon tweeters, which I kept on blowing out! They just couldn’t deal with forgetting a channel strip was on when plugging a lead and I took one out with an Arp Odyssey too! I spent far more money fixing the things than they cost. I never really got to evaluate them properly as hi-fi speakers and stupidly didn’t think to keep the dead DK30s when I eventually gave them away after the studio business attempt failed.
