Goodmans Axiette 8 and Dual 1019 ??????

[Zappafan]

I'm looking at a pair of Goodmans Axiette 8 speakers, no cabinets, just the speakers. They look to be in great shape as is the Dual 1019. The 1019 has no base as it has been fitted into a cabinet (cabinet not included). I want to make this person a reasonable offer but would like it to be one we both would be happy with. I've done some searching around and have found info on the Dual but not a lot of feedback about the Goodmans. I'm going to call tonight so I'm hoping that I have some info on my side.

I would guess that the Axiette was a smaller version of the Axiom, which is a very highly regarded (and valuable) driver in some circles. Doesn't mean that the Axiette is equally good, but its better than being compared to a Yorx or whatever. But not many people are looking for raw drivers, and while the 1019 is a nice table, they are not rare, and minus the base is a strike against it valuewise, so I would feel justified in offering a fairly low price. If you can get them for not much, it would be worth it just to satisfy your curiosity (or more accurately, my curiosity + your money and time).
