Vintage 1960’s AR-2 a speakers. You know you want them! Please don’t miss this listing… IF YOU LIVE EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI, IT WILL LIKELY BE LESS. I’M WILLING TO MEET UP WITH YOU…. I have given you many more photos below so please scroll down. These AR speakers are a 1 owner pair. They have outstanding drivers behind those grilles. The AR2a’s dont show up that often. Great speaker and a tremendous value when compared to the skyrocketing AR3 pricing. Capture the AR sound for much less. These clearly started life as “unfinished” cabinets from AR when new. The owner finished them with some tinted varnish. He did a great job on one… The other, not so much. I’m guessing there was something like oil on the cabinet or in his mixture. The cabinet sides are smooth to the touch….. The finish applied to them is dappled. Both speakers were tested and both play. But as always with AR speakers, they of course need new pots for the mid and high frequency controls (Crunchy). You wont have tweeter and mid sound until you tend to the potentiometer controls. This is standard operating procedure for AR speakers. I’m not going to remove the grilles. But I do wish I could to show you the condition of the drivers. Looking through the grille cloth with a flashlight I see that the ribbed surrounds on the mids are still shiny black. No dust or corrosion on the baskets. The tweeters and woofers are beautiful. These are definitely worth your time. I’m going to let the photos do the talking on this one. Examine all the high resolution photos below. Last note that the owner added feet to the bottom of each cabinet (see photo below). I removed them but I didn’t toss them. Nobody will pack speakers better than right here, no worries. Pro packing is my specialty – examine my feedback. Please study all the photos below. C’mon you know you want them! Condition is VG- or better. Wear and tear from the decades. Please examine photos and ask any questions. Overseas on this item IS ACCEPTED…… Listing is for 30 days. Finally land some AR speakers! Item is described as completely and as honestly as possible.
