One pair of Coral 2-way loudspeakers, in good used condition. These lean into the classic Japanese aesthetic, with an overall lantern-like shape and joinery reminiscent of shoji screens. The fabric also has a really nice, subtle effect, like mist in a painting. All four sides look the same, but the speaker drivers are all facing one direction, so these aren't omnidirectional. Quite the opposite.

Tested with a standard modern(ish) amp, and in my opinion they sound surprisingly good. Smooth, which is a style that I enjoy. Not very aggressive on the highs, although I think they can also be driven quite a bit louder than I was willing to do in my tiny apartment. Bass feels pretty boomy to me, but I say that about a lot of speakers. Overall I think these would be great for ambient music, for parties, or even a nice step up from built-in TV speakers.

These are just about 24" (2 feet) tall and the tops are about 19" square.

Cabinets are in good shape for the age, but they do have their share of dings and scratches, as do we all. I've taken pictures that highlight the overall condition. Fabric is good, looks original. I can't inspect the drivers closely, but from shining a light through the grilles, they look in good condition.
