Vintage Mind Blower speakers???

[Jessev54]

Everytime I install modern stereo components, my father tells me stories of his audio systems back in the day, circa late 70's. Although the cars change in each story, he always mentions "Mind Blower" speakers. He said they were 6x9 speakers with thier own amps mounted to them. I did some research ad found out they were made by Pyramid. I would really like to get my hands on a set and surprise him on a future restoration project. Plus, I'd love to look at and hear these things. Anyone know where I might find some, or any other info about them?

You have a cool Dad..I bought a pair in 1977 and installed them in my 1972 Olds 442.. they where considered bad ass speakers for that time

My buddy Mike had Mindblowers I helped him install in the rear deck of his '73 Mustang coupe. Wired up to a Pioneer Supertuner 8-track they sounded... loud. Mostly on Foghat, REO, Styx, Seger and the rock of the late '70s. I had a VW Rabbit, Jensen 6x9 Co-Ax on the flimsy rear deck cover and 5x7 Jensen 2-ways hacked into the front doors. A Blaupunkt cassette receiver and a Rockford Fosgate 40W x2 Amp that blew fuses constantly. It too was loud, maybe a bit more accurate than the Mustang, probably due to the superior cassette player. Either way, great times and who cares what they sounded like, we we're 16, close to the beach with a cooler full of Miller in the glass bottle. All was fine.

Had a pair back in the mid 70's, what a great sound from 2 - 100 watt speakers in the rear of my car. Also it was a very heavy speaker because each one had its own amphlephier !!! Have no idea or memory of what happened to them . LOL

I had a set in a ‘67 Mustang hard top. Unbelievable sound. Wish I could find some more Mindblowers.

Seems like every couple months a senior citizen learns how to use the internet and makes a single post about these speakers.

You should take a moment to thank them for supporting an emerging market or it wouldn't be what it is today.

I installed Mindblowers in my '69 Pontiac Acadian. I'm not going to attempt to compare them with today's technology, but 50 years ago, they sounded awesome!

I remember a set laying in a burn barrel back in the 70s my old man had tossed and lit up.
