cyclonecj Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Opinions needed here... these look kinda shabby, but $300 seems like a good price for verts. Should I go pick these up? (I am only 15 minutes away) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garymd Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I'd pick them up for $300! According to the auction, one is a '71 or '72??? The other is from the early 60s???? They look like a closer match then that. Grab em!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonecj Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I just got an email from another forum member... He will be getting them. I really dont need them, but I also didn't want them to get away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshnich Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Yes, I emailed Bryan saying that I would take em if he didnt. Neither of us needed another pair of speakers but the deal was pretty good and I am sucker for old stuff. Ill pick em up this weekend and see how big of a project I have in front of me! Looks like fun. Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshnich Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Im going to pick these up on Saturday. They are not matched but both are verticals. The Crossovers and the woofers are different but that's ok because I already have a pair of Crites woofers that I have yet to install in my Belles so I can use the ones that are in my belles in these. Ill update the crossovers as well. All in all not bad for 300.00! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclonecj Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I am curious to see what the outside looks like. If they turn out to better then the pics showed, I might have to kick myself a few times...[:'(] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshnich Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I'm curious myself. Ill let you know when I get em! Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewolf Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Josh....Nice score. I have been searching for a vert for a HT I am building. Currently running an Academy, but would prefer to match the center with the Conrwall II's I have. Keep me in mind if you decide to part with them. I only need one.

triceratops Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Excellent score, Josh! I have a pair of mismatched Vert Cornwalls of about the same vintage. It could be a long shot, but we may be able to swap some parts back and forth and each wind up with a matched pair. Your one woofer is a Jensen and I also have one of those in my mismatched pair. I'm in Oregon. Triceratops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshnich Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Ill let you know exactly what I have when I pick em up tomorrow. Thanks Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshnich Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I am curious to see what the outside looks like. If they turn out to better then the pics showed, I might have to kick myself a few times...[:'(] The outsides are actually in very good condition. They are not a lot of scratches or gouges. There is one fairly siginificant gouge on the front of one of them. The speaker cloth is toast on both of them. Nice original pie slice logos! They have different networks one has a "B" the other a "2 RB". The tweeters and mid drivers are the same in both speakers, the woofers are different. One is a Jensen and the other the typical EV. It appears that one of the tweeters is blown. All and all a pretty good score. A little work and these wil be nice. Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
