I had given mine away to my sister who used them for many years. One days I noticed the rotted surrounds gave her a different pair and took them back to maybe fix up.
For those whose systems have improved and evolved overall over time, you really have to play old speakers on the newer gear to know what they might be capable off. The signal I am feeding them today is leaps and bounds better than what I fed them 30 years ago.
I also put them on my Isoacoustics brand isolating stands, a trick I learned recently (physically isolating speakers from rather than coupling to suspended plywood floors found in most modern homes) that takes most any speaker up several notches.
