Yep, 16 AR speakers in all. I can't even get them to fit in one picture.
No just the big boys listed. Looks like all the surrounds are good on all but one pair of AR9LS's, that's a relief. I am pretty sure there are boxes with refoamed drivers here which will make things much easier. One pair of the AR9's is missing the upper mid bass drivers, so I'm going to look through boxes for those today.
They really are amazing speakers and I’ve been following your find since the beginning. This whole score is nothing short of amazing and interesting. I do know one thing, unfortunately I let them go a while back and I certainly do miss them the AR 9LS series speakers are so heavy and a pain to move around I cannot imagine having more than a pair to deal with. Good luck and take it easy on your back when needed!I'm short one 10" down firing woofer, one of the boxes I grabbed had one that needed re foaming
I feel your pain, I quickly found out that I needed to install slides on the bottoms so there is no need to lift them much. They move with relative ease now.
So far the LS's sound a bit better especially the bass, but I like that the 9's have controls to tune the speaker. LS's and 9's seem a bit harsh and bright, but I'm used to hearing the butter smooth Snell's.
It has been a long and winding road.OK, I need more of this story!!! Where did these speakers come from? And what's with all the spare parts? It's like an AR time capsule. Did you purchase a storage unit, and have the tremendous luck to acquire an audiophile unit? What gives...???
