Should I buy used Thiel CS5


Stumbled across a pair of these beasts at a used stereo store. I can get them for 3 grand. The loudspeakers are probably 30 years old. Would you goners grab these for 3 grand or get something new for 3 grand. What new would you recommend for 3 grand?

@jeffvegas, when making that call, you might want to inquire about availability and costs for upgrading to CS5i status, as well as about possible future upgrade possibilities. 
@maplegrovemusic , you scored one of the all time bargain deals!
The $3K asking price is currently on the low side of typical for CS 5's.
If you have the room and can provide the rather demanding amplification; they can be terrific!
