Posted on by

Many baby boomers are what you call audiophiles.Equipment is usually called “High End” and includes playback equipment used by audiophiles, which is usually bought at specialist shops and online. High-end components include turntables, digital-to-analog converters, equalization devices, preamplifiers and amplifiers (both solid-state and vacuum tube), horn and electrostatic speakers, power conditioners, subwoofers, headphones, and acoustic room treatment.

My hubby loves to collect and restore vintage speakers. Here is a short video and Part 1 of a current restoration project. When these are completed they will be placed online for purchase.This video focuses on Acoustic Research Ar4 and Ar6 speakers.

 

Old Stereo Speakers-Acoustic Research 2x

Posted on by

If you asked me about old speakers five years ago I would probably tell you that you could have them because I wanted something new and slick. But that would not be the response from my husband who did have old speakers but I never appreciated their history and worth.

Lately I have been listening to him as he refurbish some vintage speakers prior to selling them. I never paid attention to things like tweeters or surrounds, but now I not only know more but constantly on the look out for cool old speakers.

It is mind blowing and I am learning more each day. So, here is a video about Acoustic Research Speaker that my hubby recorded. I also, have a link to more information at AR2x’s.
