My Father has a pair of these that he wants to sell. They are both in great shape, but we are not sure what they would be worth.

Here's what they are:
VENTED, 12" WOOFER, 5" MID, 3" TWEETER In a wood veneer box with removable cloth grill.

Manufacture Years: 1990 - ?

60W RMS, 150W Peak 8 ohm Impedance
Ferrofluid filled tweeter
Sensitivity: 91dB

They claim to be digital speakers...but I'm not sure what that means...digital internal crossovers maybe?

Thanks,
Greg

There is no such thing as a digital speaker. They have probably been designed (or maybe just marketed) to be used with digital audio components like CD players.

Bingo.

I didn't really think there was, however, I also have a problem with the idea that Jensen lists them on the ID plate as "Digital 3122" without there being such an animal as a digital speaker. Hence the idea that they may have used digital internal crossovers or something in order to be able to use the word digital without it JUST being a marketing ploy.

Regardless, that is beside the point. The real question is, what are they worth? I understand that condition is everything, but at someone must have some idea of a price range for a pair of them in decent aesthetic shape and perfect operating condition.

Thanks,
Greg
