A friend gave me her audio system and some LPs. Pictured are the speakers which she says she has had since new. They have been re-foamed at least once. She said I was doing her a favor and knew I would appreciate them The receiver is a Marantz MR1155 and the turntable is a Dennon DP 51. This turntable works and sounds very nice and I think it's a keeper. I have some older Marantz receivers that are built way better than the MR1155.She is an artist and painted the speakers. Are they possibly worth restoring for the sound? In person the cabinets are quite unique as original art.
What do they mean by "plug into 117 Volts AC????
Thank you for any helpful comments.
Still spinnin'...
