These are from my private collection, High Price reflects how I would part with them. You can consider these may be one of the rarest speakers fabricated by AR. Don’t miss out on purchasing one of the most sought after speakers. The AR4 gave birth to the AR4X and the rest in history. I restored these two years ago to keep for myself, true statement no bull. Really clean set and in Fabulous Condition. Extremely Nice Looking Speaker Cabinets and Sound Quality! Matched Set of speakers and crossover components. These have been fully serviced and upgraded and are ready to play. All Drivers are original and Matched. New MIL Grade Audio Caps installed, originals were out of tolerance. They each measured 12Uf+. Spec calls for 6Uf. Woofers were sealed with Vintage AR cloth surround sealer to ensure Acoustical Integrity of Cabinets and Speakers. Tweeters are never a problem, they are solid and sounding as they should. This is modern production wirewound potentiometer. An exact copy of the original pot (in terms of values 16Ohm / 25 Watt), but much better in terms of reliability and quality. The pot has a enlarged ceramic body that houses the coil and allows much better heat dissipation. Large surface and material allows the heat to dissipate much better, compared to the original pots. Also the coil and the wiper remain hidden from the sulfur emissions. Speakers have been thoroughly tested and sound fantastic. Grills and Badges are in near perfect condition I chose to use new black one cause they look so cool! Engraved RED Badges, RARE in itself. Cabinets are in Great condition for their 50+ year age, Few minor scratches and nicks are visible, please see pictures. Great shape for something that was made in 1965! Technically this set of speakers sound great and will operate reliably for a long time. “The best of the lot, the AR4X, handled these upper ranges as well as any other speaker, no matter how big or expensive, ever put through its paces in our laboratory, ” they said. And also, The smoothest response in the test, and one of the smoothest, widest-range loudspeakers ever tested by Consumer Reports.
