AR-2ax. On the Prowl. Typical Issues???

This discussion has me on the prowl for a pair of AR-2ax Speakers.

Anyone have advice, what typically needs doing? What questions to ask?

thanks, Elliott

Woofer surround, I don't recall if they were foam or cloth. Change caps in crossovers. Not very efficient but a darn good sounding speaker. To my knowledge, no problems with either midrange or tweeters, Just be sure to check and see if they are matched because they had a couple design variations. Good luck!
