As the Eisenhower era came to an end, Danish Modern designs had reached the American mass market, and during the Kennedy years, 1960-1963, their popularity exploded. Buyers flocked to decorate their homes and apartments with the clean lines and beautiful woods that were featured in the furniture and accessories of this period. Massive cultural changes towards the end of the decade prompted consumers to move towards other styles but the appeal of Danish Modern endures in the periodic revivals of interest in Mid-Century Moderndesign/ This listing is for a classic small receiver/speaker combo that boasts an unusually attractive mid-century look. The 7 watt per channel ( RMS) receiver was a very popular early Japanese import that appeared under numerous private label brandings from 1971-1975. The original models did not have a preamp for magnetic cartridges. Latter models looked identical but added magnetic cartridge input/preamplifier.The most common were the nearly identical Allied Electronics Model 426 and the Realistic STA-14. These were the last popular receivers with a slim profile and a styling that seems to complement the Danish Modern look so popular at that time.By 1973 most receivers got bigger in size and boasted a classic «silver-era» look that dominated the marketplace for the next ten years. Radio Shack catalogs sought to mimic these design trends in product introductions that were geared to an exploding consumer market in the early 1960’s for relatively inexpensive hi-fi components and systems. Their first product to tap into this was the compact Solo-1 speakers introduced in 1959-1960 . The speakers were an inexpensive entry level product for those just beginning an interest in hi-fi . The size, cosmetic design, price and performance all hit the bulls-eye with these new consumers. Unusually attractive for cheap speakers, and sized perfectly for the new market, they caught the eye of buyers in those cluttered and unattractive Radio Shack catalogs that were still dominated by offerings of much more expensive name-brand components. Radio Shack marketing quickly advanced after 1960 and by 1964 the catalogs had taken on a modern look with far more emphasis on the Realistic house brand. The Solo-1 was featured on the 1964 cover and acclaimed as » the speaker that changed audio history» by making high fidelity something that millions could afford. The wildly popular Solo-1 remained in Radio Shack catalogs for 16 years, though somewhat changed after1970/1971. The classic model, made in Japan, was pretty much mid-fidelity at best with a single 6 inch driver in a well made enclosure 14″ x 11″ x 10″. The high compliance speaker featured a whizzer cone and relatively good sized magnet that worked well in the tuned (Helmholtz resonator), vented duct type enclosure. They looked great and are still enjoyable to listen to. The fact that they still can command a good price in today’s aftermarket is a testament to a size and style that continues to find a place in many decorating schemes. (More than a few buyers ditch the original speakers inside the Solo-1 but keep the enclosures for their DIY projects). THIS LISTING IS FOR THE REALISTIC STA-14 RECEIVER and A PAIR OF REALISTIC SOLO 1 SPEAKERS (with speaker cables included) THERE ARE TWO ALTERNATE SPEAKER CHOICES– THESE ARE SHOWN IN THE 4th and 5th PICTURES. Message us if you want us to post one of the alternates. Same price but the shipping charge will be less For those wanting a compact two- way speaker with wider response but styling that still has that mid-century Retro look, we offer the Lafayette Criterion 25 ( 4th picture) . The attractive Lafayette Criterion 25 speakers packed an 8 inch woofer into an unusually compact enclosure ( 12″x10″x7″). The cubical dimensions and mid-century styling were a throwback to the 1960’s but the acoustic suspension 2 way design was a better sonic fit for 1970’s systems. The 25’s and 25a’s were inexpensive introductory models with cosmetic appeal and a better low end than most of their competitors from Radio Shack and others. Given the low price and small size , they sound reasonably good. High compliance 8″ woofer with rolled edge suspension and 2.5″ cone tweeter in a hand rubbed oiled walnut finish enclosure.For a smaller single driver speaker with retro styling , we offer the Realistic Solo-103 (aka Solo-2). These are shown in the last picture, atop a receiver. A classic mid-60s single driver speaker with a unique sound. Not much low end but all the detail and superior imaging that make single driver speakers so appealing. The Foster Electronics four inch drivers (10F3, F-103 and FE-103) do wonders with low power amps and receivers. Retro style with nice details.Buyers east of the Mississippi River and north of Florida may receive a refund of excess shipping charges
