Beveridge System 3's, worth repairing?

I have owned a pair of Beveridge System 3 speakers for over 10 years. they now no longer work and I have not used them in years. additionally, 2 of the bass drivers are now punctured. from memory, these were a very nice set of speakers. I have since replaced them, but I am wondering if they are worth repairing to either keep as my main speakers or put them up for sale. Rick Beveridge (son of Harold) is now in buisness restoring them. I currently own a pair of ML SL3's. are the System 3's the equal of the SL3's? I don't want to invest say, $2000 to repair only to find out I can only get $1000 for them. I would appreciate suggestions from anyone familiar with them.

thanks, Paul

Beveridge speakers are worth repairing them if you intend to keep them and listen to them. They are wonderful speakers and when propperly set up are unparalleled. The system 3s are more user freindly than the 2s or 2SWs. I don't remeber how many were made, so I can't give you an idea of the supply, demand is low, as not many people know about them.
Happy listening

The crossover is avaliable through Roger Modjeski, and Music Reference, it is the RM-3.
