vintage speakers


I'm on a vintage speaker kick. My choices have been narrowed down to either a set of Mcintosh XR7 speakers or Acoustic Reserch AR9 speakers. I know many will have other suggestions but for my price point and shipping I have narrowed my search down to these two that are available. Please provide your insight based on your experience with both or either pair.

Thanks
