Large AR speakers

[Thocom]

Kinda just want to identify, and see if these are worth it? These are the largest AR speakers I've seen.

Looks to me like the AR-9LS. Read up here.

You might want to investigate how broken those are. I paid 500 for a pair and one entire speak's sensitivity was way off.

Definitely a good buy if they are original and just need refoams.

no idea if this is a good deal or not and not affiliated.

If you REALLLLLLLLLY wanted a pair of AR9's for your whole life and it was your last resort, maybe. A guy has a pair locally around here and started at 800 and is at 650, all done up and still can't move em.

Not too bad of a asking price, for what's included.
Try offering 750.00$ to 850.00$

Large speakers are just like real-estate... it's all about Location, location, location. If you happen to be in a large metropolitan area, they can bring big bucks, but if shipping is going to be the only way to reach your market, they'll go for pennies.

I've seen lovely K-horns & Concert Grands sell for >$500 while some rough ones bring thousands just because the seller happens to be in a better location.

...FWIW, I think that's a very good price on those AR9ls, assuming they are complete & need only re-foaming.

In the last two years I bought two pair of those, each for $40/pair. All needed re-foams on the 12, 10, and 8 inch drivers. One pair also had a completely inop tweeter/midrange module in one speaker.

I needed one working pair for a bud in Brooklyn, and just recently sold the leftovers for $150 to a gentleman from Delaware.

It's a good deal at $275, but should anything go wrong with tweeter/mid modules, I believe those can be very tough to find

I have a pair after restoration I am into them around $600, well worth it, fantastic speakers! They do everything well!
