Look like R50's. For $25, replace the bad tweeter and enjoy or part out and double your $$...

R50s - they were listed new for a bunch more, but used to go on sale at Frys from time-to-time for like $75 apiece shipped. I had a pair for a while and thought they sounded very nice for what they cost. I ended up giving them to a family member who still has them in a secondary rig and continues to enjoy them. Very much worth $25 for the pair if all they need is one new tweeter!!

Some people are a bit delusional about what these are really worth: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/ele/4570179934.html
This guy's had this pair listed for $300 for over seven months - note his reference to listening to the Super Bowl with tremendous sound! He keeps updating the listing every two or three days without fail and reposts with each expiration....how cute!

I had a pair of r30's for fronts & r10's for rears on a Yamaha HTR & they did great HT but boy the r30's stunk on 2channel music listening. Tons of bass. Beautiful speaker. That was about it. They didnt stay long. If the r50's are anything like that-id pass. If you need replacement parts that might be a issue also-but pop up time-to-time again

Never fear, he re-posted that SWEET pair of R50s for a mere $300: http://minneapolis.en.craigslist.org/hnp/ele/4587099211.html

...and, he's still promising that you can "Listen to the Super Bowl with tremendous sound!"

I KNEW he'd be back - pretty sure we're at the 8-month mark now! For a while he had "REDUCED" in the listing title, but they were still at $300. Bummed me out, I was just about to run over and snatch 'em up!
