Is it just me or does it look like these Valencias have been floating around before? Judging by the cabinet damage and the water lines on the cones, I would say these have been in a basement flood. I would be interested in to see the inside of the cabs.

I bet they smell nice.
Not all vegetables make good leaders.
Yes I bet they do smell bad. Lol
There is a guy about 2 hours from me selling a pair of Valencias with both woofers blown, one horn blown, and water damaged cabs for 220 dollars. I was thinking about jumping on it for the 416 frames, but I decided not to because I already have enough non-working Altec parts in my garage
If anyone is interested (Phil these are down by you)

Those Valencias in Palm Bay for 220.00 look like a good deal. I wonder if the drivers are really blown. Could be bad crossovers. Worth looking at.

I just sent him an email asking if he checked the drivers individually with a multimeter or if they just don't produce sound. I also asked if the woofers rubbed at all when pushed by hand. We will see what he says.
I talked to him before and he seems like a speaker guy so hopefully he already ruled out the easy fix. Otherwise I need to haul ass down to Palm Bay
UPDATE:
I heard back from the seller. He checked all driver with a meter. The two woofers and one 806 read open. He also said one of the woofers has a rub
