MonteR Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 Hello, Can anyone give me information on the AR58b speakers? I have found some for sale but know nothing about them. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, MonteR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKent Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 Do a Google search. Sort of a newer/cheaper version of the 3a. Be aware there were 58, 58B, 58BX 58BXi and 58S. Maybe others. I’ve never owned any of them but I think the B version could be nice if the price is right. Probably need new foams and the vinyl cladding is ugly.

AR55 Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 Below is a spec sheet on the AR58B & catalog page. I once owned the AR48Bs. I gave them to my daughter's father-in-law about 8 years ago & he is still happy with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AR55 Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 I paid $245 for the AR48Bs about 12 years ago, which would be about $335 today. I would expect that you are going to probably have to pay at least $100 more for the 58Bs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKent Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 A pair sold on ebay in November for $475. That seems very high to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AR55 Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 You have to keep in mind that the seller could probably get $300 to $350 parting it out, so $400 isn't out of line for a pair in that good of shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
