    L250's ...should I grab them?

    Folks,

    I have these L250's available to me....purdy cheap ....sorry for the poor pics, I had to use my cell phone.....

    I am curios what my restore costs might be and what other considerations I might be overlooking.

    The cabinet condition I would call 7/10....have a few veneer nicks(I can repair these myself) at the bottoms, but apart from that they really dont have any major blemishes that I saw....I think they will cleanup real nice....

    The LF drivers need new foam. ($150)

    One tweet is dented both screen and dust cap. ($??) is this my chance to up them to 250ti's?

    One HF-mid has some small scratches/dents in the inverted dust cap. ($70)

    Oddly, the grills have no mounting pins :dont-know???

    Anything I am missing.....do you think I should grab them while the grabbin is good?

    Thanks for your input....Shaan

    Looks like a most doable project for restoration with the exception of a 044-1 tweeter. Fortunately the 044-1 is functionally the same as the standard 044. Only difference is the gold color dome and black housing. I hoped to do an upgrade to mine but so far it has not been economically feisable. The grill frame rests on top of the 4" and 14" transducer edges. Mine has velcro which keeps them from falling off.

    It's the "purdy cheap" part that says "you need to own them!"
