Celestion SL 12 si

I own a pair of SL 12s. They are not lead lined like the
SL 6s but the SL 12s use the same tweeter and mid/woofer
drivers as the SL 6s except there are two mid/woofers
in a wood brace cabinet(they are biwireable.

Does anyone have information on the speaker or can you direct me to urls where I might read a review/s. The speakers appear in the USA early '90's.

Thank You,
Raymond

I owned a pair of the Celestion SL6 speakers in the early '80s. I still have them in storage in Australia. Mine were the original (and in my opinion, the best) version with the copper-dome tweeter. Very inefficient, but I was powering them with a Metaxas 100w class A sand amp, and they responded nicely.

I don't think they were lead-lined, and I did look inside at one stage because the woofers were damaged when we had a party. Such is life. Celestion replaced the drivers, and they were as good as new.

The copper-domed tweeter is sweet. The SL6si introduced the much more efficient aluminium tweeter, but I thought they lost some of their smoothness.
