The items are Vintage Acoustic Research AR-4x Bookshelf Speakers. The cabinets are in great condition and would probably need a little wood polish. They are from the mid 60s; quite heavy and solidly built. The speakers have spent the decades on a bookshelf with the original owner and have been well maintained throughout. The speakers come with the original brochures and manuals.

Overall speaker is in nice working condition for its age. It sound beautiful though the increase and decrease knob in the back sometime has some static while trying to fine tune the sound but still works well. 1 of the grill is missing the logo tag. Also please see picture 10 as it missing 1 bolt that hold the speaker wire tight in place though you can just wrap them speaker round it. General these flaws are very minor. Please ask questions if needed.
