the cabinets on these generally don't suffer and the come back to life with a few rubbing of linseed or whatever. it's the grills that usually take a beating and are frail to boot after many years.
my 2.5's looked pretty rough but turned out quiet presentable after some tlc.
i hope an AKer gets these so we can watch them being revived...
Q: My friend is interested in this. - but not for $200 - he may be able to 'gas up' for $20 max, If they play, he might pay more, maybe 250. I don't really know how rich he is, but he is frugal and they seem to need AT LEAST $500 of work to bring them anywhere near factory spec (4 new Infinity woofers ??? $$$ !!!) Is there any wiggle room, and do they sound good enough for a 50 watt kenwood the way they are? Apr-17-14
A: Have a nice day.
