  1. Hi Jeff, soon after Kutztown, I ordered an old tweeter from eBay (from Hawaii) just installed it today with new crossover cap. SWEET sound. I can see why AR 4xs get rave reviews. So now I need another tweeter and, of course, there's 2 on eBay now:

    What to do?....lol......I guess keep looking for another single!

      I may have a single. I'll take a look if you are interested.

  4. Since you're into history, I'll tell you that for the last 29 years, I've worked at the local hysterical society. We've merged since then and changed our name    www.yorkhistorycenter.org     I have a complete woodworking workshop and up until about 9 years ago, I barely knew what a vacuum tube was. Then the old radio bug bit. Then, 6 months ago I bought off CL, a 1959 Fisher French Prov. console stereo for $70. Was going to eBay flip the preamp and amp, but kept. (Pics are at AK in Fisher section) Then I refoamed my college Advents for my workshop Dynaco SS system. (I'm now back into audio...LOL) These AR 1s came out of no where and I'm hooked!) I'm now rebuilding a pair of AR 4xs for the fun of it. I have no need for them....LOL....DENNIS

      Ha, ha, ha, to paraphrase Tina Turner, "what does need have to do with it!" Sounds like the 4x's should go in the workshop ...

    Are those your ADS L-980's up on ebay?

      Yeah, I'd kick mine out for three sets of AR-3's ;)

      Decided the ADS sound wasn't to your taste?

      I'd probably buy another set locally at the right price.

      It may take awhile to sell those but they are somewhat rare and in very nice shape.
