Advent maestro speakers

[freebird4808]

I am going to take a look at some Advent maestro speakers. They appear to be in exellent shape but need
new surrounds. Any idea what to offer ?

Thanks

There are currently three sold listings on eBay - 2 local pickup that sold for $50 and $279 and one for $168 with $87 shipping. Does the seller have an asking price?

Advent maestro is something good but hard to sale. It is in a sweet spot that not so heavy not so small in terms of shipping. And not so great but not so bad in terms of performance. I listed on Facebook local pick-up for $150. Tons of inquires but no one comes. Eventually, I was getting tired and change it to $80. After another 3 months, I sold it for $60 when a buyer finally came.

I friend of mine recently picked up a nice pair for $125, which I believe is a very good deal for them. They are a terrific sounding model and he enjoys them very much.

The seller is not sure about a price. Are these hard to re

Should be $150-$200 value.
Offer half that if cabs are nice.

Re-foam is straight forward.

The catch. They work best with 100wpc or more.
Much under that power level of amp and they are ho-hum. With a powerful amp, they really wake up and are wonderful.
