Dust cap missing on the woofer. Don't know if that would be an issue.
The small Bozaks with the 12 inch woofer stuffed into an acoustic suspension sized enclosure don't have the easy, unconstrained bass of the big Bozaks, but they can be enjoyable to listen to (though the three way versions are probably even more enjoyable). On the other hand, the big Bozaks are ruinous to ship, so they can be found for much less than their sound qualities would justify. So I wouldn't pay a whole lot for the Sonata IIs since you might be able to buy bigger, better Bozaks for a similar price.
Of course, your music room may not be big enough to accomodate two refrigerator sized speakers...

I found a pair of Bozak 302a (circa 1959) about twenty years ago at an ARC thrift store. For period jazz music on a good vinyl setup they were sublime.If that genre was all I listened to I would look no further. Their size made them a liability though and I eventually moved them on.
