Default Got some free speakers

My dad has had these in storage for awhile and wanted to get rid of them, so I told him I'd take them. The smaller ones are Klipsch, not sure what model, but look pretty nice and are in great shape. The larger ones are Acoustic Research AR-3a. The surround on the woofers on both speakers are completely shot, but I ordered a replacement kit on ebay for $20. We'll see how that goes. Not sure what condition the midranges are in, but I'm sure that if they don't sound good I can do something about that too. Any idea what these are worth?

I used to run AR's they are some of the finest accoustic cabinets. They are 4 ohm though so you will need to make sure your amp can drive them. I loved my AR's, they can really pound out some crisp sound. Now I have Pinnicle golds and Definative audios but I rarely get to play it loud anymore.

My whole setup is HK

Yeah I've heard good things about Klipsch, but I know that every brand has it's low and high end models. These are KG2's....not sure where they fall in the Klipsch lineup.

That's my next step...gotta find a good 4 ohm capable amp.
