You do not know what kind of envoironment they were in. Did they get wet, who knows. Did the previous owner have a cheap amp that "clipped" (music is an AC signmal and clipping is when the volume is turned up so high that the output becomes a steady DC voltage, thi sdestroys speakers) the output? who knows.

I would go to an audio store listen to what they have and then get prices from crutchfiled and make your best deal.

Good luck!!!!!

It's not clipping that blows speakers, it's the thermal energy that's created that blows speakers. So the old addage "you can blow a 1000 watt sub with a 100 watt amp" is false.

Also, Scala1 has some great deals on E-bay. I've gotten stuff from him before.
