I love vintage speakers. Problem is there are many things that can age in a speaker. I worked for AR (Acoustic Research) in the mid 1970's. I bought some 10pi speakers in 1980. I pulled them out a few years back and brought them back to near new shape. That cost around $500.00, more than I paid for the speakers.
They still sound great, still eat lots of power. I gave them to a friend of mine to start building his system.
Another thing - Used speakers on eBay can be a great deal, for what they are.
