Hi all,
I recently acquired a pair of AR-6 speakers (for $120 CAD). I've learned a lot about them from browsing threads here so I'd like to share photos of my progress as I examine/restore mine.
They are the oldest variant with the ribbed woofer cones and the crossover with the large capacitor. The woofers are stamped 1972. Overall, they seem to be in quite good condition! The tweeters aren't dented. The grilles can use a little cleaning. So far I've replaced the 10uF capacitors with non-polaraized electrolytic ones from Solen. I inspected the pots with the intention to apply some deoxit but they didn't really need any. Right now I'm awaiting delivery of a new set of foams from vintage-ar.
I'm looking forward to finishing them!
