I saw a pair of these in a thrift shop today. They looked mint, very nice wood cabs, but they wanted $50. I really don't have any knowledge of these. What do you think they are worth?

    Thanks for the reply;) I don't remember seeing anything other than 'Monitor 4' on them. I didn't see any '4a' or 'Series II' I don't believe. If my memory is correct though, the tweeter looked like the ones in the '4A' picture in your 1st link. What is the difference in the tweeters?
