Good to see you here. There are a few P.A.D. cable/cords fans and owners on the Panel.

Happy Listening!

Hmm - if the plates are truly under the speakers - I don’t think I’ll be able to access them. I think they weigh over 150 lbs each. Thanks for the suggestions though. I guess I’ll go searching for the manuals etc. I imagine he saved them somewhere. Have a great day everyone. 

The speakers are not that hard for many to hold in a tilted postion while someone looks underneath (you only need to tilt them several inches to get a smart phone under there to take a picture).  I used to own 7.2s which were the same size as the 7s (and there was an upgrade option for someone to upgrade 7s to 7.2s).  I believe the original 7s (and possibly early 7.2s) had a concrete baffle and weighed a 170 pounds.  The 7.2s with the composite baffle (which I owned) weighed 155 pounds.  Hifiengine.com has the manual for the 7.2s.  Hifishark.com will allow you to search for current and past products which are for sale or have been sold.

abmeyer - the CS7 and 7.2 can be differentiated by their midrange driver. The original 7 has a flat polystyrene driver, whereas the 7.2 has a shallow anodized aluminum cone.

Thanks everyone.  Tom - that's very helpful.  I can tell that they are original 7s.  Someone had just asked me to add a picture of the model and serial number to some photos I was going to use to find them a new home.  I'll have to see if I can borrow some muscle to help tilt them, I guess (or find the receipt).  My 83 year old friend is not going to want to be my muscle.
