Opinions on the Acoustic Research M 6 floorstander

Has anyone ever heard the early 90s Acoustic Research M 6 floorstander?? What does it sound like or what can you compare/contrast it with? Thanks

I'd crank New Order's "Technique" through them at the dealer. I really wanted a set. They weren't "cheap" speakers (well...given my income back in 1994). If you can grab a minty-fresh pair (on the cheap), replace the surrounds, and perhaps drop in a few new caps, by all means do so.
