Found this link while searching the good ol net... I believe its taken from some article written in 1973. They picture 'The Double Advent System' which looks a LOT like the Advent/3's I have.

I can vouch for the Advent mini's. They are hansom little speakers with wood top and bottom plates. Very smooth and easy to listen to. Too bad they are so...mini. They are great for a tiny space.

The were acquired by Recoton who went bankrupt last year. The recent Advents seemed to focus on outdoor and wireless. The Advent, Jensen, and Acoustic Research lines were acquired by Audiovox. Other than a news release last July, about new Jensen and Advent products, I haven't seen anything develop. It appears from the news that they were going to use the Advent name to develop high end consumer level speakers. Acoustic research was notably absent in the news release.
