You know, I don't think I've ever heard the words "Tandy" (Radio Shack) and
"Audiophile" used in the same sentence. Just an observation.

Actually, it's a little amusing because although you can see Radio Shack
printed on the back of the speakers (in small letters in one of the photos),
the seller is EXTREMELY careful not to mention this little detail in the
VERY lengthy description.

The early Allied stuff was good equipment, before it became Radio Shack

I'm not sure what equipment your talking about. They did have some things, and
some interesting
like electrostatic tweeter units. Most of the stuff was Knight Kits. My first
Allied receiver (shortwave)
was a Span Master. I bought an Allied stereo receiver in 1969 maybe 15 wpc,
along with a set of Utah
speakers, and AR turntable, after I got my first job. The receiver was not
really very good. My first ampplifier
was an Allied Kit, and used gernanium transistors. Radio Shack had some Allied
items for
a short time, but those didn't last long. Well Tandy does not own Allied any
more,
but Allied is strickly industrial electronics. I always liked Lafafette myself,
and Olsen
was neat

Oh, Tandy is back to doing what it did well, leathercraft.
Actually, the name seems to have turned around, from Tandy to Tandy Leathercraft, and
the Tandy name takes on new meanings.
