Old Vandy 2Cs worth the cheap price for starter?


I have a buddy of mine who does not have the bucks to spend on audio gear. I gave him my old Luxman T-115 tuner, C-120A preamp and M-120A 110 wpc power amp. He also has my old IMF super compact II bookshelf speakers. I have seen some cheap prices on the older Vandy and Alon speakers around and under $500 a pair sold on Agon from people in CA where he lives.

Are these worth it for him to drop $350 on any of these pairs of speakers or any others?

Thanks.

I had the 1B's and My dad has the 2ce sigs...great speakers, but unless I could pick them up locally I wouldn't trust the original packing materials (pretty pathetic compared to my B&W's) and they are pretty heavy to boot...but they do sound VERY good for the price...I'd go with the 1c's and add a sub if necessary later...the 2's go deeper of course, but I still think they need a sub also.

just my 2c
