Hey Jerry, a $350 pair of Utility Advents will soon be joining da audio arsenal. Found a curbed pair of oak-cabbed Advents several years back. Fairly well trashed, except for those Masonite surrounds. Finally got around to takin' 'em to Brown Soun for re-coning, along with a pair of blown tweets. Charlie said they couldn't recone the tweets, but had a similar second generation pair for $110 each(an updated Advent replacement was $65 each). Makes one wonder what that original tweet duo could be worth? Got those Utility Advents from a co-worker a decade or so ago. Chucked da original woofs, like a fool, in favour of Technics woofs(now utilized for rear channel duty). Blew da tweets over-pre-amping da Sansui when it first arrived. Am now paying dearly for that double dip into auditory malfeasance. But $350 for up-to-date retro classique seems a decent refund investment! Those trashed oak cabs face a future hosting hemp-coned V30s, powered by Altec/Lansing 1569A amplification! P.S.: Heartfelt sympathies to eastern-n-midwestern-n-southern storm victims, as well as to Virginia Tech victims' families-n-friends(just announced over KVMR)!
