Great find for lovers of Vintage speakers.
Please Buy These Speakers!
No, this is not a substitute for a classified, which I bought and paid for, so take it easy. :) This is about history.
I have to sell my mother’s house and she still had my dad’s ElectroVoice Royal 400 speakers from the 60’s. It was part of what sparked my interest in audio. My dad had a Harmon Kardon Stereo Festival receiver, Rek-O-Kut table and Bell tape recorder along with the EVs and it sounded great. Anyway, it hurts me to see them go and I think they deserve to be restored and kept as part of audio’s heritage. They shouldn’t just fade away. I wish I could do it myself, but I just don’t have the room. So please take them, restore them and love them. When people say "it’s not about the money" it’s usually a lie, but this time it’s true. God bless you all.
BTW - If any of you know someone who is capable of restoring these in the NYC area, please let me know. Maybe I'll figure out a way to do it. Thanks again.
