Here also is the Goto crossover. (Couldn't find a way to send attach two photos to the previous posting.)
Follow Ups:
It is a full GOTO system by the looks of it, Tweeter, midrange and even the GOTO 505 which is the big horn, Horns included and Bass cabinet, of course, with what seems to be doublé GOTO 15" woofers in the right volumen over built box, as it should be. Even the XOver is there.
One of the best systems you can get. It will leave your Meridian whatevers in the dust easily.
You have to see which series they are, If the have the bigger magnets or the Berylium diaphragms.

Wow, this is great information, many thanks!Family folklore has it that he paid EU50,000 for the speakers. That's probably wildly inaccurate, but if it's even roughly ballpark it suggests it might be the top level of each driver. (New cost according to that 2008 price list about $45000 delivered, without the cabinets.)
They are not mine, and probably the family will want to monetise them, if they are of such value. What should I advise? That they sell within Japan as a complete system seems the most logical. Breaking it up would be a pity.
If I was to offer to buy them myself from my father-in-law who inherited them, what should I offer? (not that I have the space...)

Hi,
Saturntube is correct, they are Goto.. If they would be sold in Japan, Yahoo Auctions in Japan is the most likely place to sell. There are also second hand audio shops in Japan that would probably pay a good price for them.

If you would buy them, try to get in touch with the ETF (triodefestival.net) folk on your side of the pond for advise on how to implement them within your space constraints.
