RE: Vintage Does Not Always = Quality

I haven't heard them all, sad to say. For me, these are more like a "future" project. I want to do something with them but have not had much time or space to work with a big wood project. I did take the L100's over to a single friend's cave and we listened for a while. Impression was good, even with blown mids! I think those woofers have potential for a two-way with a tweeter that goes a little lower.

My wife would not let any of them into our common spaces as-is. The Valencias didn't even make it past the back porch. The best thing you could say about those cabinets is that they did a good job protecting the insides. I removed the drivers and left the cabinets out there. I have a space now for doing woodwork that I didn't have a few years ago but time is a precious commodity.
