Are the 6 speakers from a 2001 Bose Lifestyle 20 Music System worth anything?

The main unit (radio/CD player) stopped working and I had to destroy it to recover my 5 CDs that were in the cartridge that would not eject.So I am left with the cables, the speakers and the various speaker stands. I am about to junk the speakers but was wondering if somehow they can still be used (or sold to some audio tech guy who can modify them to work with other gear)

Yes the speakers can certainly be reused. I have modified them in the past. They are not hard to modify. You could sell them on ebay.

I was with one of ATC’s engineers when we opened one of those puppies up and he immediately started laughing.  He recognized the driver immediately and said it goes for three pence, which I think equated to about 6 cents at the time.  So I’d say you’d be lucky to get 36 cents for the set but more likely will have to pay someone to take them away.
