Info on jbl paragon


Hi, I have been talking with a guy who just got a 1963 jbl paragon. This guy does not know much about hi end audio stuff, neither do I, but I am learning. I am not going to see it untill first week of may. but he wants 3000.00 for it, all the info I have on it is that it is 11 feet long, He said it was in pretty rough shape. I have no idea if it is worth going to take a look at, the only reason I would buy it is to re-sell it. Is it worth 3000 if it is in rough shape? Do people spend money on just the speaker components inside? or does the cabinet make the value? any info would be great Thanks

I would like to add to the ideas that 1. The drivers need to be original and clean. In particular the 375 compression driver and it's horn needs to be in very good unaltered shape . 2. Most collectors really think of condition as a very critical matter. If this cabinet is beat up a real collector won't want it. A guy without collector money why may have wanted a Paragon just to hear what they were will not pay much. People that restore them know they can't get nearly as much for "restored compared with original mint". Some things like remagnetizing the driver motors and refreshing caps in the crossovers are acceptable it appears, if not desirable.

BTW I have those same D-130 15 inch extended range woofers and 075 bullet tweeter speakers in the lowboy cabinets , Walnut of course. That combo and the n2400 crossover went together as the "030 speaker package" I believe.
