For sale is a rare single Acoustic Research AR1 speaker system, particuarly famous for its use of an Altec / Western Electric 755A 8 speaker. Unfortunately, I’m unable to take the speaker out to see which version or brand this one uses. Cosmetically, the cabinet portion of this AR1 isn’t in the best of the condition. It shows definite wear including nicks, scratches, chips, fading and, unfortunately, the grill cloth has come loose. This will need repairing and can be seen in the photos. The cone on the 755A looks good and can also be seen in the first photo above. Functionality wise, the speaker has been tested and emits good sound. I’ve taken enough photographs so you can judge the condition of this item for yourself, they’ll do a better job of illustrating its condition than I ever could. I ask that you please refer to them for more details. The item “Acoustic Research AR1 Speaker Western Electric / Altec 755A Driver No Reserve” is in sale since Thursday, January 25, 2018.
