Any Love for Proac?

[montrecott]

I see some beautiful Response 2.5 in this thread. Anybody with Repose 1.5? If so, any comments? Someone is selling a pair of 1.5 locally. They say they are the original owner and the speakers look beautiful, but the price is still on the high side, based on completed sales I've seen. I'll keep an eye on them and see if he lowers the price. They look like they'd be about the right size for our 14 x 14 foot living room.

And, since this thread is about Proac owners, here are the Super Tablettes I used to have. Which makes me a former owner.

Hi everyone
I'm new to the forum and would like to ask for advice on a pair of "vintage" proac
I am bargaining with a seller for a beautiful pair of Proac Response 1 with external crossovers "filter block".
what can you tell me about these speakers?
they are very well maintained, but being from 1990 my doubt would be the deterioration of the woofer suspension
(I don't know if it could be replaced),
and the condition of the crossover components (easy to replace because they're external...).
I can't find information online about this particular model.
how much could a couple in excellent condition be valued?
does anyone have a copy of the user manual or crossover diagram?
Thanks to everyone and have a nice day

I opened a specific thread in "dollars and sense" forum.
if the moderators think it is right, they can delete my posts in this thread. I'm sorry, but I'm new to the forum and it wasn't my intention to create a "double" thread.
if anyone knows these speakers I'd like to know your opinions in the specific thread.
in Italy I can't find many fans or owners of these Proacs.
Thank you..
