Pioneer TS-1690 – Pair of vintage car speakers – Japan – 1980s
Description
Rare pair of vintage Pioneer TS-1690 car speakers, emblematic of the golden age of Japanese car audio in the 1980s.
These “surface mount” speakers with the futuristic design typical of the era have become highly sought after by collectors of vintage audio gear, enthusiasts of Youngtimer/JDM vehicles, and fans of old-school car audio.
Their iconic aesthetic, with a black metal grille and a silver aluminum front, perfectly represents the high-tech Japanese design of the 1980s.
The speakers feature a tweeter tilt adjustment (“Tweeter Angle”) and are sold with their original mounting brackets.
Functionality is excellent: the drivers have been tested and operate perfectly, delivering clear and balanced sound.
