THE VERY SOUL OF MUSIC
To-day the quality, of radio transmission and reception, has reached a very high standard and it has been left to Celestion to develop a reproducer that is capable of filling that most vital link between the broadcasting studio and the listener.
Every loudspeaker bearing the name CELESTON is a precision engineered instrument, produced by specialists, subjected to exacting tests at every stage of manufacture and made only of the highest quality materials.
The supremacy of Celestion Loudspeakers is undoubted by the most critical judges of workmanship and quality. All speakers are finished in cellulose in an attractive shade of brown.
