weebeesdad, unfortunately there is no way to test them. They do look to be in spectacular condition, but that's not to say whether they have been used to death or not.
For an hypothetical, let's just say the driver is shot. Where does that leave me? Again, I'm very new at this but I assume the craftsmanship of the enclosure is probably the most important part of this, right? Could drivers and other parts be replaced yet still reproduce the quality tones that John was inspired to create?
Sorry for the ignorance here. I'm just getting into the hobby but I did not expect to be diving in this soon like this.
