Speakers for Old Sony LBT-V502
Discussion
Morning all
I've recently, through a convoluted means and method, re-inherited my Dad's retirement present from 1990. Its a Sony LBT-V502 as pictured.
Ive put it up in the lounge, as it reminds me of home (Dad passed in 2005), and wired it up. Sadly the CD player does not recognise CDs, but I bought a minidisc player/recorder too as another bit of nostalgia (have hundreds of the things from circa 1999 (Speed Garage Selection is a highlight)
Anyhoo, I think the speakers or at least one of them, are blown as they do not handle volume and are very crackly. I don't really know anything about old audio like this but would like to use it as intended.
Anyone know of any good speakers that would work with this?
Thanks all!

Much obliged chaps.
Minefield, Richer Sounds, be nice to get a decent sound out of it. Anyone know if things like this benefit from any level of service/clean/maintenance?
Its been sitting in a (dry) garage for about 10 years unused, so it could be full of dust and whatever, its cosmetically clean etc and as I said working, but would like to prolong its life as I think it looks cool and still kind of classy in an "old money Ive had it for years" kind of way.
Cheers
