pair of REALISTIC MINIMUS-7W bookshelf speakers

These two are (not quite sequential) serial numbers 2101 and 2105 of the MINIMUS series offered by Radio Shack (a division of Tandy Corporation) in the 1980's or so. If I recall correctly there was an actual line of 'mini' stereo components then including speakers like these (in various exterior finishes) that while not really "highly rated" by audiophile-types were nonetheless a commercial success, at least the speakers anyway, being rather popular sellers at a good price point that found their way into all kinds of places beyond the Radio Shack store.

This pair is real walnut veneer that now could use a good cleaning and some furniture polish, the grilles are likewise dusty but pretty much intact. Their speaker drivers also appear undamaged with still-good surrounds on their woofers. :-) :-) :-) Like the Infinity speakers shown yesterday I haven't had a chance to hook them up to anything to check their functionality, but am pretty sure they will work when I do. (since if not, they would have been thrown out years ago?!)
