Acoustic Research AR-3a Loudspeakers

This offering is for a very clean and fully functioning pair of Acoustic Research AR-3a Loudspeakers.  The walnut finish is beautiful, and the sound is commanding.  The 40+ year old original drivers produce a wonderful sound stage.

These were purchased in the mid 70’s- I am the original owner.  Over the years they have been continuously used, and I have kept them in near showroom condition.  I am retiring to smaller quarters and need to downsize my hi-fi collection, so these legends are in need of a new home!

All drivers are factory original.  Both woofer surrounds have been recently replaced.  All corners are intact, with no scratches- even on speaker bottoms.  Grill cloth is original, as are the AR-3a brass badges.   All cabinet paperwork is intact.  Original AR literature, including the Owner’s Manual are included.  The original AR-3a shipping cartons are also included.

The 3a’s will be double boxed: in their original shipping cartons; and further protected by double wall cardboard outer boxes. They will be shipped in two boxes via standard FedEx to USA addresses only.  Please note that each boxed speaker weighs 66 pounds, and that eBay shipping quotes are typically for only one box, so actual charges will be twice the eBay quote.  Actual delivery charges will be determined by your location within the US.  Alternatively, the AR's may be picked up locally to save on shipping costs.  Please carefully review the images, and should you have any questions prior to purchase, please use the eBay message system to contact me.  These are vintage used, fully working high fidelity components, offered as described and as-is, with no returns accepted.

Thank you for your interest!
