, they look great. Unusually Low price for such a classic. even has the EC X-over

Been up for 14 days, a serious buyer with some cash to flash might be able to shave a few more bucks off as well.
A couple years ago they seemed to struggle to break $7k although lately they're trading a bit higher.

If they were on the East Coast
They would be Gone
For just a bit more than 4333’s/L300’s
Leaps and Bounds better!

I wonder if it was a Scam Ad.

 

[Nyjblbob]

Good ones go 5 figures or more as these were, nicely Restored.

I've seen the ad before, it pops up here and there. Allegedly they're real.

I remember somebody pulling a pair out of thrift in PNW and posting the find, and how they found them on here over a decade ago. And what they had to go through to get them home....They are big suckers.

This was a legit post. I bought them from the owner. He also has some L-300's, but he was keeping those.

They are labeled 4340..... Unsure how to use it. Only one, but two channel. Strongly considering purchasing an after market X'er set from EBay from a guy that goes by loudspeakerchef. I'm also interested in that charged couple design as well. Would like to Biamp these at some point as curiosity is getting the better of me here. I will look around, on this site, for the appropriate X'er chats.

Best easy way to biamp? I’d buy a minidsp 2x4HD and umik, use this for the crossover pre-amplifier, great for experimenting with slopes, frequencies, phase, etc. and can save programs when you find ones you like.

 

[Nyjblbob]

I believe it is a stereo X-over. Should be 2 inputs and 2 outputs out back.
I bet it works fine. you should be ready to Biamp with it.

 

[89 Chev]

Thanks Folks. I will read into the minidsp system Saturation Pt. I figuring I would need to run a bunch of amps?
Nyjblbob, I will consider using. The two card designation threw me as they read a different number. I think I will require the line level to RCA input converters?
Thanks for the conversation!

I'm sure the seller would be Knowledgeable about them.
Maybe not?
What are the 2 different numbers on the front panel of the X-0ver
