Snell Type A speakers


What is the value of a used pair of Type A speakers. One tweeter is bad.

If you put some money into them, like replacing the tweeters and updating the crossover bits, you’d have a great pair of speakers, but to unload them as is, probably not much.  The A’s were my first big, non bookshelf speakers.

All the best.

They are wonderful speakers. A used pair could be an path to good sound for little money. I believe the woofer surrounds are foam which can rot over time so check them before purchase. Atomic HiFi and TV in Ashland Massachusetts has replacement drivers. 

There are a pair of A2's on Ebay right now in very nice condition for $400.00. So I would say the ones you are talking about would be worth very little by comparison. Just search "Snell Speakers" on EBAY and you'll see them.

It depends on the condition. If they still have the original woofers they probably need to be replaced. Atomic Hifi in Ashland MA bought the Snell rights and does repairs including tuning. To replace just the tweeter, it’s $135. The woofers are $275 each.

Having the original boxes also helps.

I kind of agree that in as-is condition, about $400 is right.
