I am more than a little surprised that no one has snagged at least one pair of these classic speakers. GLWTS. Thanks very much. Just need the right folks to come along to realize the value here. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimjimbo 10181 Posted June 13, 2019 Also added to the original listing that I would entertain a trade of one pair plus cash for a nice pair of La Scalas. Or, if you happen to see a pair of LS in the IN/MI/IL/oh area, please let me know. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark1101 707 Posted June 13, 2019 I find it incredible these are still around. The price is more than fair. The last thing I need is more speakers but I'd come get a pair in a minute if I were local. Rare offering and nice forum gesture. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackrcox 39 Posted June 13, 2019 I want these but am in stl and am booked solid for the next week. I had a detour in Chicago yesterday but couldn't get away to get them. Believe me, they are a great price and I am checking back daily. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those by the way, are beautiful. Clearly been taken care of over their life. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, there's an automatic 10% surcharge, and they will not be permitted to soil my driveway and will have to park in the street. 24 hours notice will have to be given so that I can prepare the disinfectant and rubber gloves. My team of German Shepard/Wolf dogs will need to be muzzled and restrained in the back kennel. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can get the other pair from StL to Springfield Mo easily. Or hold in StL for @rockhound. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimjimbo 10181 Posted June 21, 2019 All exterior work. Cabinets were rubbed down with Howard's Restore A Finish in Dark Walnut, and then rubbed down with two coats of Watco oil. All drivers and interior were dusted and vacuumed. Grills were vacuumed. Everything is original, networks, drivers, etc. Don't know what else to tell you. I have done lots of work on many different Heritage models, all the way from complete teardown, network rebuild, driver replacements, rewiring, cabinetry refinishing, etc, etc. Although I'm not nearly as skilled as many others here, I take my time and am very particular about the outcome of whatever project I'm working on. This was an easy project relative to many others I've done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
