Being given a pair of 886A's for free. A bad tweeter and woofer.

[Darren James]

someone in my area is giving away a pair of 886A's. I can always use another project. So I am picking them up tomorrow.

Anyone have experience with them?
Anything to look for as a common problem areas?

Thanks,
Darren

Free is a good price. Not Altec's best effort. CTS drivers. 10" woofer, 2-1/2" phenolic tweeter, passive radiator, (10"). Well built cabinets. Single 6uf capacitor in the crossover.
