A coat of pain will made it brand new FOR $300.00.

He's not too far off the mark with that one...

The 803 is fairly priced.

Even tho they're far from the last word in Altec 1 inch drivers, the 804's are in the fair range too if they have original working phragms.

807's are as good as useless for hifi with their stock symbiotik phragms, priced too high.

300 for the boxes is just nuts, unless you had an immediate and specific use for them. Personally i'd not pay 300 for 1219's fully loaded and working, there's nothing special in there.

OK.............. i just looked again, and it looks like he's letting the 421's go with the 1219 boxes, but makes no mention of the horns and drivers so i assume that's where the 807/811's are from, certainly a little more realistic with the woofers at least but even so their value at best is maybe 100 each. His description is confusing to say the least.

For the 700 total, you could buy or build a very significant pair of plug and play speakers.

Just my .02 y'all understand...........................
