What to do with my dad's old Revel Performa F50's?


Hi friends, so I recently picked up my dad’s old Revel Perfforma F50’s that were taken from his home theater setup (along with a C30).

I’ve had a few interested parties come by to take a look and think about buying them, but ultimately they decided to pass as some of the rubber has cracks in them. Now I’m wondering what the best course of action would be. Trying to balance not throwing them away vs spending too much to ship them off to get repaired/restored for sale. I’m moving soon so probably want to try to get rid of as much as possible before the big move and just wondering what you all would do in this scenario?

Here’s a link to the selling post so you can check out all the pictures. What should I do here?

Thanks for the feedback.

Very nice speakers! Here is my 2 cents worth. First I looked close at the photos on your ad and the surrounds to me do not look like they need replacing unless I am missing something.. Those cuts look like the screw drive slip when prying a speaker out if its nest, you only do that once!!!. Second, I buy and sell used speakers and one thing I have found is that they are cheap to buy and hard to sell. The market for a particular higher end brand is quite limited and the buyer is in fear of a "bad buy" due to defects and unseen alterations. Shipping of speakers that size is all but cost prohibited so your are dealing in most cases with your local market. One option find a dealer close to you that might sell them on consignment. Good luck with your sale.
