RE: Magnepan MG3

I am surprised anyone is asking over a grand for such old MG3s.

I have a twentyseven year old pair of IIIa's which I recently self repaired (Weldwood dap). I also got new black socks (much better than the old 60s looking gunny sack), stained the light wood dark cherry and painted the feet black to match. I wouldn't say mine play like new, but they look much better than new.

That said, I assume they are worth substantially less than a grand.

BTW, does anyone know if the newer tweeter is substantially better than the old one from the 3a?

Also, does anyone know if the tweeters lose anything as they age*? Mine seems to have less sparkle than I remember twenty plus years ago, but that could be me aging more than the speakers.

* the bass on the other hand seems to just keep getting better.
