    Depends on the woofer surrounds condition and both of the tweeters in each working I believe.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Yep-- pull the grill and be sure to check out the surrounds,,if the tweeter/ribbions pass muster,,they look like Original's from what I can see--good luck--fair price--in good condition,no issues,,I'm gonna say 500,,maybe 600 tops,,BTW-- be sure to examine the brace/footer on the rear that supports the speaker--also--carefull when removing the grill--for me it's a 2 person job--one in the back unscrewing,and 1 in front to steady and support the frame/cover.
    JC approves....he told me so. (F-1 nut)

    i thought that the originals had 2 30" ribbons. That looks like a single ribbon, which I think would make it a Silver or Platinum, depending on size?

    I thought I read somewhere to about tweeter lengths getting changed somewhere along there time runs over those years. I think parts are still avil. for the tweeters, right?
