EMC monitors?

EMC is Electronic Music Corporation, out of Cleveland, Ohio.

Can you give us more details on the speakers, maybe pics?
Speaker diameter, dimensions, etc... Is there any text on the jackplate?

I believe that EMC made some PA columns, 4x10 w/ a horn in the middle. It doesn't sound like that's what you have though.
 
Over the decades I've seen a fair number of EMC products, but never wedges. Please post photos if possible!

I've got 2 B220 bass heads (one since '76, the other a FleaBay acquisition about 10 years ago) and a matching 1x15 cabinet. My gear has since evolved, but I have no plans to part with this stuff. The original amp has been 100% reliable, and even saved my butt a couple of times as a slave amp for a PA sub. Obviously the stuff was never meant to be more than MI-grade gear, but it's been as reliable as anything I've ever owned.
 
More info from various Google searches:

Check out this article and its comments. Gives some more information about the company: Invalid Link Removed

Also, if you pay $10, you get access to some archive EMC brochures here: VintAxe.com Vintage Guitars - Amps & Gear Catalogs - EMC Amplifiers

Also, try some google searches along the lines of this:
"emc speaker site:craigslist.org -computer"
Some of the CL listing are interesting.

I just recently acquired a g350 with two matching 4x10 speakers. Can't find a single thing out about the quality of these amps, although I do like the sound for a solid state amp. What are the value of these things? How much did they go for?
