pfarley337 Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Compared to what I have seen listed on Ebay lately as "mint" or "pristine" I have mint and pristine AR11's. Purchased by my Uncle new in 78, they truely are in extremely good condition. He lived alone, was never married, had no kids, and did not smoke, they sat in the same place in his home, rarely used, for 33 years! I refoamed them, otherwise original, and in perfect working order. Logo's, grills, its all there. What are they worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiganpat Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 nothing, but as a service you you, I'll take 'em off your hands, I'll even toss in $20 and a case of your favorite beer.....seriously, in pristine condition with intact foam grilles, I'd pay $350-400.

pfarley337 Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I'm in Spokane, Wa. 99037. I was also considering trying to find suitable material to replace the foam that was around the outside of the woofer covering the mounting bolts and metal basket frame before trying to list them anywhere, I was told it is no longer available, and is totally cosmetic.

dualref Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Back to the original question, what are these speakers worth? They are worth whatever somebody is willing to pay for them. Like classic cars the value is what somebody is willing to buy them for.Now, you can help raise the value by including more information about their history, more photos, more details, etc.An ad like this: AR-11 Speakers for sale. Will not get you as much money asAR-11 Speakers for sale, they were bought new in XXX by my XXXX, here are some photos of them. In your original post you did a good job describing them, just do that with everyplace you list them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfarley337 Posted December 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2011 Well, here they are. I found a great replacement for the original foam around the tweeter and the frame of the woofer. Looks as good if not better than new! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
