What exactly are they, and what amp are you using?
Nina Simone has been on heavy rotation in my home/life since the very first time I heard "Black Is The Color Of My True Love's Hair."

Those are B&W matrix 801's series 3, from about 1991, I have to many amps, but I run these on a Spectral pre power combo from the mid 80's that came with the speakers and I had intended to flip but ended up loving to much to move.
There is a pair of older Energy reference 22's in NE Calgary for 200 bucks listed on Canuckaudiomart right now, great speaker at a great price assuming they are working ok, wont go to huge volume but absolutely lovely for jazz.
If I were in Calgary I would be buying them even though I do not need them at all!
