Updating the networks on my Academy and Heresy IIs

Stumbled across a somewhat local guy who I'm swapping out a pair of RB-5s for a rebuild on my Academy center and Heresy IIs.  I thought it was a fair trade.  Had the RB-5s sitting idle so I figured I might as well do something with them.

 

Should be getting everything taken care of in a week or two.  Excited to get them refreshed!

I sure hope those RB-5’s were beaters. Wow. 

 

They're probably worth about $175 in their condition.  Slightly frayed top of one grille, missing one brass jumper, various dings and scratches.

 

I figure $175 is about what it would cost to have Bob rebuild them.

 

{edit} Bob charges $95 for Heresy II and $85 for an Academy rebuild.  Plus shipping to him would equal about $190.  I feel good about the deal.
