Hello,
Here I am again with another speaker question. I was wondering if anyone had a first hand experience with Snell Type C speakers (original Peter Snell design dated back to 1983).
Snell Acoustics | History
The Old School Equipment
The reason that I am asking is I can pick up a pair for quarter of a grand. According to seller, the cabinets are very good for their age, however woofers need to be refoamed & rear tweeter needs to be changed.
Good news is he already ordered the foam kit and a new rear tweeter from Snell/Boston Acoustics.
So,
1) Any first hand experience with type C's?
2) Price is good - bad - fair?
3) If I buy the speakers, how hard is to refoam the woofers and change the rear tweeter? (edit: seller will take care of this part)
Thanks!!
