beowulf Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 I was looking for AE-3a to restore but got a good offer for AR-94. It looks like a very nice and solid speaker to me and find a very little info on internet. Any experiences with these boxes, especially in regard to 3a ?

JKent Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Welcome to CSP beowulf! There were a couple of speakers with the 94 model designation.I can think of the 94, 94S, 94Si, 94Sx....... They are nice speakers, with an 8" woofer, identical 8" midbass and a ferrofluid filled tweeter. I'm not a fan of the "sock" but here is how I modified a pair of 94Si's: Nice and solid, yes. But no rival for the 3a. If you want a speaker of this era (the 9 series) that is basically a floor-standing AR-3a, look for the AR-91. Here is some 9 series literature: http://www.classicspeakerpages.net/library/acoustic_research/ar-9_series_1978-1981/ -Kent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason4300 Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 They're nice speakers, usually cheap and a good project to test the restoration waters. But I agree, they're not AR3s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
