Vintage Magnavox s-8766. Worth anything?

[jlindsey86]

I have a pair of these speakers. They are in wonderful condition and sound great. They weigh in at 44 lbs apiece. Each are comprised of a 15 inch air- suspension woofer and a 1 inch horn tweeter. Made in USA. Anyone know any history about these speakers and if they are worth anything? I would assume they are from the early 70's.

This is what they look like

LOL I did a google search and it linked me to your thread LOL

I'm afraid those are not the most popular speakers it seems. If they sound good, why not keep em? If they don't.. spring cleaning!

I don't know anything about your speakers. I'd check audiokarma.org and see if you can find anything there.
