dynaco_dan Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Hi there;A pair of older AR-4X's, with cloth surrounds, just sold for $261.00 for the pair!Seems to be a rash of excessive prices paid this winter for AR classic products.When someone asks me what a pair of AR-4X should cost, I would usually say, $60 - 90.00 a pair, now I cannot advise anyone.

joelongwood Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Yes, it's pretty amazing, Vern. A pair AR6's sold for $317 just the other day. Yet, about 6 weeks ago I picked up a pair of mint (needed nothing) AR5's on eBay for $117. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
day67 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 On a side note, pardon the digression, a pair of KLH model 5's went for over $300. on, you know.... also seem like vintage amps (again, pardon the digression) are suddenly doubling in price....I'll say, WOW!

Andy Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 The beauty of all the high prices is when you least expect it, right in front of you is a great pair of vintage speakers for free or for a few dollars ! It takes patience, but it still happens. In the past few years I've taken home a pair of KLH 23's free, pair of AR 4x $12.00, a pair of AR2ax $10.00, a scarce pair of KLH model 6's from early 1958 $20.00, even a rare Baruch-Lang corner speaker made by Kloss in 1952 $20.00! I did pay $100 for a single AR-1W dating to 1957, I simply had to have an early example of Acoustic Research and was not going to pay the $500. plus for a AR-1. I find large flea markets is the place to go (early in the morning).I live near Boston and this is AR, KLH and Advent territory !Happy hunting, Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
