RevelF32 in good shape, or RevelF50 in bad shape?


Hello Everybody!
I could use some help here. I'd like to buy a pair of speakers. I could buy a pair of Revel F32 in very good shape for 1000 pounds, or a pair of Revel F50 in pretty bad shape with serviced mid woofers.
The first question is, how big the gap is between the two quality wise? I have the DK Design VS1 Reference MK3 amplifier and the Sony SCD-XA 5400 SACD player with a pair of Bower&Wilkins 604S3 speakers.
I don't have chance to demo them, so I have to make up my mind based on my knowledge and based on yours...........! Thanks for any advise.

Obviously a response 2 years later but if anyone is interested...

I heard from a knowledgeable dealer friend of mine that there were/are issues with the drivers going on the F50. He had 2 pair he took in trade and although neither of the those pairs had drivers that had failed he upgraded all 4 speakers to the F50A drivers just to be safe.

He felt he would end up taking the F50s back otherwise from clients when the drivers went and this way he's got F50As to sell.
