I modified one empty ar1w cabinet, and then made a copy of that one. I then venered both with dark walnut. I was using the original ar3a woofers, along with some 8 mid/tweeters. They sounded very good. PICS SHOWING DARKER WOOD GRAIN IS MORE REALISTIC. A couple pics show blondish color, not true color. THE MID TWEETER OPENINGS ARE DESIGNED FOR EITHER OPEN BACK MIDS OR CLOSE BACK MIDS AS I HAVE BUILT IN A SEALED MTG CHAMBER FOR THOSE ITEMS. THE COPIED CAB DOES HAVE SOME INTERNAL WOOD BRACING AS WELL. COMES WITH 2 HOME MADE SPEAKER GRILLS THAT PROBABLY NEED TO BE PROPERLY FITTED TO THE CABS. ALSO COMES WITH 1 CONNECT PANEL. Looks old, maybe original. Also comes with some some ar1 papers. Ps, the labels on the back of these cabs were home made. Just so you know. If you win, you will have to carry them up some basement steps. I used to be able to do that all day long, but now have to many medical issues to do that any more. I have a lot of nicely restored speakers i have to sell. Ar3a’s ar5’s, ar2ax’s, ar4x’s. And lots of raw ar drivers also. See and hear for yourself how good they look, and how nice they sound. Make me an offer for this pair, (or any other pair that you might want).

Up for sale, an empty AR1W speaker cabinet. This cabinet was professionally modified to match an AR1 cabinet, which would allow it to accept an Altec 755a speaker. The project was abandoned when I couldn’t locate an Altec 755a driver or an AR1 crossover. Uou will get what is pictured, the cabinet with original insulation and an original unmodified grill.

Up for sale here is this set of two Acoustic Research AR3 empty cabinets with crossovers. These have the crossovers and the old fiberglass fill inside, but do not have grills or speakers in them. They are in nice solid shape but do have some wear, and the veneer is a little wavy on top, probably from light water damage. These are incredibly well-built cabinets and could probably be refinished into something really nice. I removed these from a set of AR-3 speakers that were missing components and needed to be parted out. I do not have any other AR parts other than what is listed. Please see my pictures for details. If you have any questions, please ask. I have more speakers and other vintage electronics listed–feel free to take a look! The item “Pair of Acoustic Research AR3 Empty Speaker Cabinets with Crossovers WILL SHIP” is in sale since Wednesday, January 8, 2020. This item is in the category “Consumer Electronics\Vintage Electronics\Vintage Audio & Video\Vintage Speakers”. The seller is “peace.love.and.music” and is located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This item can be shipped to United States.
