Hi - I am also in southern NH and looking for advice on listing a pair of AR-1 that were kept in the same spot untill I brought them here a few years ago. We plugged them in this evening and they seem just fine. I also have various capacitors tubes etc which may be relevant to the speakers. Sadly I don't really understand these pages and how it all works (what is the submit status on this form?) - but I can tell that if I list them with your group's pages they will be sold to a "good home" (hopefully without requiring me to attempt to ship them). Thanks - cjr

Hi Cathy,
This sure is an intriguing story. I get it now and I am sorry for missing the "r", brought not bought.
Cathy, what is your hope for this please? The AR-1 is an interesting item in that it was produced in the blossoming of home stereo (actually mono back then) advances, and in fact is not necessarily considered a great speaker, more about it's collectability! In my opinion doesn't get enough respect. Fabulous bass can be had if driver is all there.
Why do you want to get rid of them as it were? Sounds like the history would warrant you If you are more interested in finding them a good home vs. trying to reap the most money it would change the approach.
I recognize you are having trouble with pictures, would email as opposed to csp be more familiar and simpler? If so you can send me an email at courises@gmail.com .

Hi cjr,
are you able to give me a little more detail? pictures would help support info.
I suppose they could be listed on this site, certainly a group that would appreciate a set of this vintage.
when you say bought them "here", I am certainly curious. one doesn't just fall into a set of AR-1s randomly as a rule, I would love to hear the story please.

p.s. the northeast has quite a few AR folks.
shipping would be a hassle if needed, I understand your concern.
