    To me no, but for $100 they would have to be in Minty condition.

    Looks like a pair of very early Monitor 5B's to me.

    They could be 5Jr's, but they look a bit too wide to me.

    Worth the $100? If they're in good condition, yes.

    Look like early 5B's. Same model I have. Of course the only way to know for sure is to see a pic w/o the grill. If they have peerless and are in very good cond., then $100 is about right. If they have sl2000's $75 would be good, but even $100 is still a good price.
