B&o ms 150

I have an opportunity to purchase at a good price ($100) a pair of B&O MS150 speakers. I am not finding much about these speakers, but it seems that B&O used top shelf drivers for these. I have plenty of power for them (SX-1250 or B&K AVR 307) and was wondering if anyone has first hand experience with them.
The surrounds have been professionally redone and they are otherwise mint.

I heard them in a store years ago and they sounded awesome, but with B&O you can't compare them to other manurfacturers products.

But for $100.00 I would jump on them.

Well, I did pick them up, they seem to be in good shape, one speaker had fell off the stand at some point in the past, so the cabinet has a small ding, but the drives seem fine. The 8" and 10" drives look like they had a competent re-foam job done on them. They are missing the factory stands, which I will look for, but the seller included a decent pair of stands he was using. I had to order the proprietary din speaker plug as I don't want to drill the cabinets. Review to follow.
Has anyone re-capped the cross overs? I was wondering if they were worth doing.
