Legacy Studio circa 1990?

Does anyone have knowledge about or has listened to this speaker? I remember ads from the early 1990's for the Legacy (Reel to Reel Design) Studio at that time and the speaker had a yellow woven Kevlar woofer. The one I am looking at on ebay has a black woofer, which would indicate it is an earlier model. As always, it's sound, not appearance and/or design that matters.

Actually, it was Reel to Real Design created by Bill Duddleston. I bought a pair of Legacy 2+'s when he was making them in his garage in 1987. Great speakers back then. I never heard the Studio's though.

I have had Legacy speakers during that time period. The Studio version I believe you are looking at have a aluminum dome SEAS tweeter and (I think) a SEAS poly cone woofer. The yellow cone Kevlar version Studios were diffently a improvement in the mids but the black poly cones were still quite nice sounding. Fine small speaker if the price is right. Also The Studio has one of the best extended low bass response of any small speaker I have listened to.
