BF-163S

Exterior of the 1960 s

Commentary

A bookshelf speaker system.

The unit is equipped with the equivalent of FE-163 which is a 16 cm cone type full range unit.

The enclosure is hermetically sealed and has a walnut finish on the exterior.

* The weight described in the catalog is completely different between the 60's and 70's. As for the appearance, the emblem etc. is also different, so it seems that there was a specification change (efficiency etc. may be a difference in measuring method).
