Me likes the eargasm retroplasm...
I picked up a "pair" of 1956-57 University S-6 Master speakers at a garage sale. I am a collector and I love this stuff, but I am struggling with a decision...
One cabinet is mahogany, stained a very maroon color with a black and gold grill cloth. One cabinet is blond stained golden-pine-ish and it has a wine colored grill cloth. Only one of them has the original front "University" badge.
Both have the N-3 Baton crossover, but they have different escutcheons for the back pots.
-I know that when these were sold "stereo" had not hit the market...
Do I restore them to look like a pair ( matching cabinets, matching grill cloth, matching pot trim) ? Or, do I keep them original in "as found" condition?
They sound wonderful, but look sub-par... Should I worry about future value?
