Hello all, I've posted a couple of time on here about recently beginning my audio journey. So far I have a turntable and receiver and am now trying to decide on a set of speakers to go with them. I believe that I have found 3 decent candidates for sale in my area, but wanted to come to you guys, the experts, and get your opinions before I pull the trigger on any of them. The speakers available are as follows:
JBL L166
Looks like a pretty sweet speaker, by the subs have been replaced with MTX eliminators and one of the tweeters has a dent in it. They are asking $350 so I'm not sure if they are worth it in their current condition.

Cerwin Vega HED 1230
Looks pretty decent and from what I've read they're decently well made and kind of rare. Priced at $180

Technics sb-cr77
Pretty clean looking speakers, from what I've read on here they're decent, but that's about it. I think $150 is a little steep but I'm pretty good at haggling.

Thanks for any insight you can provide!
Woofers in a two or three way speaker are not "subs" regardless of their size. They are simply woofers. Subs are almost always separate and self powered.
