Up for sale, a very nice SINGLE vintage AR3a speaker cabinet. The drivers that were removed were dated from 1972. This cabinet is in very nice condition. There are only a few small cosmetic blemishes, which can ve seen in the pictures. The drivers were removed, but the insulation and crossovers are still intact and untouched. The crossover pots are typical, they will need cleaned or replaced. The other components are also listed for sale separately. Please check my other listings for the match to this cabinet if you are in need of two. View my other listings for an array of interesting items at great prices.

For being 50 years old, these are one of the nicest pair I’ve personally seen, definitely the nicest pair I’ve owned. I got them from a widow, with some other hifi equipment a few months ago, re-foamed the woofers, cleaned them, and re-oiled the original walnut veneer cabinets with dark wood oil. They look outstanding, and they sound outstanding! All individual speakers/drivers are original and work as they should. They may have been recapped at some point, but I’m not sure, I didn’t open them up. The nice thing about the AR-2ax is that they share many of the same parts with the Flagship AR-3a speakers, sound almost as good, but are 1/3 – 1/2 the price of the AR-3a.

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.
