Working on a pair of VS 80 I found at the side of the road. Your video was very cool. Nice sound stereo room and keeping your original speakers all these years is a plus..

Thanks for the nice comment. I was listening to my old Vegas today I am amazed at how great they still sound. Good luck.

Dennis from TSS in Chicago was a great friend to me. I owned the Double D horns for pro use back in the 70's. You brought back a lot of good memories for me.

Dennis was one of the nicest people I have ever met. In 1975 my Wife and I drove to Chicago to his store(quite an adventure for a young couple from small town Wisconsin). Dennis spent alot of time with us, answered a thousand questions, and explained the +3db=double power scale. Recently I tried to contact him by letter, but unknown if it went to the same guy. Thanks for the nice comment.

@@mr.purple1549 I was starting a disco business at the same time around 1975-76, and bought locally some Cerwin-Vega speakers in the Detroit Michigan area. I needed some Cerwin-Vega parts for their horn drivers when I met Dennis in Chicago by driving there one weekend. We stayed close friends for 40 years visiting him often. I lost contact with him about 5 years ago when I had some health problems. I built the speaker system up using all CV pro gear and worked with artists from Humble Pie to Joe Crocker. Stopped doing that about 20 years ago. I can send you some pics if you are interested

I just picked up a pair of V33, I went to a gentleman’s home to purchase some items he had, then he told me he was going to sell the V33, I looked at them and immediately said NO, because I didn’t like how they looked. Then I asked him play some Pink Floyd on them, after listening for 2 minutes, I told him I was going to buy them. Those speakers are remarkably unique, was blown away. Do you have any information on the V33 please?

[@mr.purple1549]

No I do not, sorry, I just looked through all my stuff. Have fun, you can not beat the old Vegas.

Hi Mr.Purple. great video. Thanks for sharing this info. I have a pair of v-35 pa speakers. I've been trying to learn more about them. If you had any info, or could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

[@mr.purple1549]

Hi, the only thing close is a spec sheet for the V-35C. 3-way full range with 18" woofer, horn mid range and horn tweeter. 50hz-16khz. If yours is a "C" I will supply more info. Thanks

Very nice!

nice work

Please help me Identify my newly Purchased Cerwin Vega Speakers, they look like V32 ...However they don't have the Rat fur on them. They have a very coarse Fiber glass finish. It has 2 x 12 inch woofers, 1 - Horn separating the Woofers And pair of tweeters over the Upper Woofer. They Sound Amazing.

Hi, All the Pro speakers had the option of "Carpet" or "Glass". You are lucky, the carpet on older speakers is usually in poor condition. I have a spec sheet showing some speakers, showing the V-32B. Probably a small change, the description matches yours. If you send me your email, I will go to the library and have them help me send copies to you. Thanks

​@@mr.purple1549Thank you for the response.. Is there a way I can send you my email in a more private setting?

[@scottrobinson9752]

I was wondering, in your literature... Do you have specs on the V-43 PA cabinets? I'm about to purchase and restore a pair of them. Thanks!

[@mr.purple1549]

Yes!, I will go to the library tomorrow afternoon and have them help me scan the sheet for you. I am low tech. The v-43 looks like a killer system. All components are listed on the sheet. If the drivers need work, and you need to send them out, as stated, I was very pleased with "Speaker Repair Pros" in California. Good luck.

[@mr.purple1549]

Hi, I scanned the front and back of the spec sheet, but KZbin will not let me attach to a reply. Please email me so I can reply by email with attachment. Thanks [e-mail]

[@scottrobinson9752]

@@mr.purple1549 ... Thanks very much! I've sent you an email.
