My turn to ask - what are these Danish speakers?

[Wigwam Jones]

I have no idea what they are, but they look as though they'd been boogered a bit. Any ideas?

Pretty sure they're Dynacos - but somebody's replaced the tweeters.

 

[JohnVF]

Yep.

A-25s with an odd tweeter.

 

[Wigwam Jones]

Thanks!

It will interesting to see what they go for with over 6 days left. I just paid $10 for a set with original parts though a bit rough in the exterior.

These look plenty rough as well. Big bite taken out of one cabinet corner. I have no idea how you fix that.

I do see those Dynaco tweeters come up on the Bay from time to time.

 

[mythless]

That's a Philips tweeter!

 

[Satch]

mythless is right, that's a Philips tweeter. I've used it in a number of DIY speakers some 20 years ago. Not bad, especially since it was quite cheap, But nothing spectacular either.

They are also missing the Dynaco plates on the grills.

So what is a pair of these with excellent cabinets and in excellent working condition worth?

 

[eddantes]

A clean, proper set of A25s with nice original grills that are not terribly yellowed and badges in place is worth a $100. Although the three pair that I've managed to snag over the past year or two have cost $0, $20 and $60. But, if you need smallish speakers with lotsa bottom end and don't want to wait and wait for a score - feel just fine paying a $100 for a nice set, because they really are a fine speaker and well worth listening to.

See, the minute someone says that, it gets move to Dollars and Sense. Which is why I didn't say that. So thanks.

Uuuum Wiggy, i think it is probably the link to an active "for sale" ad(actually a goodwill auction in this case) that got the thread moved. Just sayin............

Anywho,

Bondo. Bondo can be veneered or grain painted to match the existing repair, and it's likely stronger than the original corner was. Smells good when it's curing too.

 

[Dynacophil]

looks like an a25 which fell under teutons

Got a Isophon kk10 tweeter in it, or is it a philips? doesn't matter... if cheap... get them

 

[Blue Shadow]

There was a pair discussed in $ & ¢ a few months back that were picked up for in the neighborhood of 150-175. Everyone was squawking about these being available and worth 50 to 100, but is there another speaker that is desired by as many folks in the under 200 buck range? Probably not, but then there were over half a million sold so they are not rare. Finding a pair in great shape with boxes and wanting to end a search can lead one to believe a fair price is just under 200. This is a price for someone that wants the speaker, knows what they are getting, with the goods in very good shape ready to plug and play. It has happened so it is not out of line price-wise.

But many have paid lots less, from delivered (better than free) to a c-note is probably the common range or prices but the under 2 bills is also realistic for a motivated buyer.

No offence but maybe you should think before you speak and flame another member(you seem to do this often). FYI, this was already in D & S when I posted.

Eddantes, thankyou for your insight.
