Thanks Glenn!! All original speakers, I’m told by a trusted seller and friend. New caps and pots were put in. I have the original speakers boxes, too. I also was told that the finish was factory lacquered, rather than the factory oiled walnut one more commonly sees. I think I also have an AR3 brochure.
Feeling very fortunate. They sound so smooth, and the bass is so nicely extended.
I am currently using a CJ PV12A preamp ... but soon replacing it with a Mac MX110z. My amps are Dynaco MKIIIs.
I’m nearing the end of a two year journey.
