Thoughts?

I don't know much about these speakers. They were made in the 70/80s by
a company that has since gone out of business. Very well thought of speakers.
No indication on the speaker of the model number. According to the interwebs
they are model V6 - http://www.humanspeakers.com/cgi-bin/page.pl?page=genesis/genv6.txt
If anyone has any other info on these please contact me.

They sound very good, fully functional, some signs of age to the cabinets.

Too much. I got $25 for a freshly refoamed pair of similar speakers.

$50 or $40 might be reasonable if they've been refoamed. I have a feeling that Genesis speakers are rarer in your area than up here in the northeast. And yes I have picked up various Genesis models (1,1+,6, 20, 22) anywhere from $5 to $60 for the 22's. Most were thrift store purchases. That said, they have a similar sound to various samller EPI speakers which might be easier to find.

They do look very EPI-like, don't they?!?

Same designer (Win Burhoe). Genesis was his second company after leaving EPi.
