A couple of years ago I gave my cousin my old NS-590s when she needed to build a system on the cheap. Much to my surprise, over the weekend she gave them back to me, now that she's remarried and the new husband's got a system. So, I'm looking at the old workhorses wondering what, if anything, they're worth.
The cabinets are in decent shape -- some bumps and bruises, but not bad for 26 years old. The grills are pulled and worn a bit, but still hang in the box when put there. And they still have their Yamaha badges. The drivers all work fine, and the refoaming I had done about 12 years ago still looks great.
So, is there any market for these, in whole or as parts? They've got big, heavy 10" woofers, nice little 3 or 4" mid-ranges, and the notorious Yamaha beryllium tweeters. Any ideas how I can best get rid of them, and how much they might be worth?
Thanks,
Rich
