Good buys on all of those ! I picked up a set of Sony MH150 bookshelf speakers for $3 then spent another $17 to replace the grill fabric and upgrade the crossovers. I thought it was a bargain! Also picked up a set of B.I.C. SV6 s for $10 that are missing the grills and are banged up some but sound perfect. I've hit up thrift stores, yard sales , and flea markets to buy older gear to repair or refurbish. I never make any money but it's fun to fix them listen a while and then possibly give them a new home to someone that appreciates them.
I have been working for a stereo repair shop for about 14 years. We used to do a fair amount of Bang & Olufsen repair, and a lot of Bose repairs both in and out of warranty, until bose shut off all their Servicing contracts and assumed complete responsibility for all service. We still service some older Bose equipment at component-level, things that the circuit- board-change-out "Techs" at Bose don't fix nowadays, but in all honesty, I hate working on both Bose and B&O products and I would never consider owning any of them for myself. Currently on my workbench is an old Bang& Olufsen receiver for a complete rebuild, the thing has got leaking caps all over the place and a complete recap is about 60 parts, plus you have to replace all the lamps with the exact same current-draw value or the electronic switching doesn't work right, and the bass control didn't work and I had to disassemble the slider and repair it. We keep pleading with the boss not to take that stuff in, it always takes longer than expected, cost the customer a significant sum of money, and yet it's not really profitable for us and frankly I don't get any satisfaction out of bring Bose or Bang & Olufsen equipment back to life. Plus the casings for both brands (Bose in particular) consist largely of plastic clamshells that snap and screw together in really strange ways with a mix of unusual fasteners that are all different from each other, and B&O units are held together pretty sloppily with double-sided tape and double-sided foam that deteriorates and makes a god-awful mess it has to be scraped off and replaced. Most Bose units by the time they're less than 10 years old have dead caps or leaking caps as well, and again you are often looking at replacing 30 or 40 or more capacitors inside a compact device where better quality capacitors that are typically larger then the crappy miniature caps Bose used just don't fit easily or well. So there you have it, from a technician, why I don't care for Bose or Bang & Olufsen. Hugely expensive to buy, complicated and costly to fix, doesn't sound all that good to me; and for what it's worth I have decades in around the audio business.
good 'un Variety is the spice of life. And you’re making this statement solely based on what you’ve worked on. I don’t buy loudspeakers based on serviceability, I buy them on price and sound. And what I have has cost next to nothing. The point of the video is to show what can be found at thrift shops, very inexpensively.
I love goodwill it is now harder to get good stuff than before but still good.I bought technics 1200 turntable for 60 dollars,JBL L100 for 16 dollars a pair,JBL L110 for 19 dollars a pair,pioneer 1050 reel to reel for 25 dollars,Bowers and Wilkins 7nt bookshelfs for 70 dollars and velodyne hgs 10 subwoofer for 50.You just have to go there a lot and be patient sometimes you go for 3 days back to back find nothing but 4th day find something amazing
@@lukasbekcic I just found a pair of jbl 4310 for 20 bucks they sound great but the cabinets need work. Also found my L100's for 12 bucks about a year ago. Just have to be there at the right time i guess. Cheers
i found a set of jbl northridge,two mains, two rears and a centre a vintage sony cd player, and 2 cassette decks, as well as a subwoofer. (polk 12" powered. ) bought untested for 35. speakers are in PERFECT shape as is the sub. ala goodwill
I too have a pair of KLH 6's, bought on EBay. Wonderful speakers! And at a GoodWill I bought a pair of JBL 640's for $40 - in excellent condition! Pink Floyd DSOTM never sounded better, as I demonstrated them for my cousin!
KLH Model 6s used (red) oil filled caps. I have rebuilt several sets. ALL, every single one of those caps were bad, registered no capacitor value at all on two different cap testers. This caused the HF frequency speakers to not work AT ALL. So, recapping was a good choice.
Found Bang and Olufsen Beovox S80 floor speakersfor $30 in mint condition at Veterans thrift. I re-foamed them and never letting them go. Estate sale found A Pioneer PL-5 record player with SA-950 amp 100 watts a channel and TX-950 tuner for $50.
I used to have a nice pair of Kenwood floor speakers I found for $15 at a Goodwill. I forget the exact model number but they sounded great. I only got rid of them because I had to downsize and switch to bookshelf speakers.
Matt Hayes There are fantastic finds out there in the wild, for sure. Check out my Kenwood shortwave receiver in other videos, thrifted from Goodwill. Thanks for the great comments, and watching my video!
I found a energy center channel for 25.00. Pretty good deal. I was also given some older Polk audio probably from the 80's that were just sitting in a basement. 6 inch woofers bigger then book shelf. I use some Bose satellite's for rear that I also got free. Not that bad for mostly free
Agree on JBL being the pinnacle speaker had the 4311 studio monitor,with the right matching amplifier/source is outstanding overall performance regretted selling them in Bush 1 recession😞
I love KLH. Model 6, That's a great find! I found a pair of Snell model K, which are pretty awesome. Hard to find good speakers in my neck of the woods.
You are so lucky...keep Treasure hunting....I scored a set of Paradigm Monitor 9v.2 all 5! Center ..Two towers and a pair of surrounds....then later scored a pair of Wharfdale Diamond 7 s!!! Love thrift stores!!! The Paradigm set was$100...saw the towers alone on Ebay for $450.00!! The Wharfdale s,were $5 ...
Waleed Mcclintock Not so much luck, but persistence. You have to keep looking, and when you see something you want, be decisive, or move on. I have a pretty good eye for what’s quality, and what is junk. Avoid the junk, because then you run the danger of hoarding.
I bought a set of those Advents from a Jordan Marsh department store. Way back. Not sure what I ever did with them. Found a set of Bose 301s from Goodwill. Use them on a secondary system. They sound alright to me
Wow Arthur those B&Os are beauties, $6 for those Advents the wood is awesome on them also...another enjoyable video thanks for sharing, have a good week-- Lisa
I'm addicted to thrift stores but they never seem to get any good audio gear where I am unfortunately, mostly just light speakers from mini systems and cheap surround sets. We do have a good local online buy/sell auction site though which I've gotten some good deals on. Not as good deals that you got though because the sellers have more of an idea of what the items are worth.
Timing is everything. They get the good stuff, it’s just either been sold, or hasn’t arrived yet. Persistence and perseverance are everything with this hobby. Pays off buying vinyl as well.
I first bought KLH 17 in 1996, then upgraded to KLH 6 in 1968 because the 17s lacked definition in the high driver. The KL:H 6s were much better in the high end, but clearly inferior to the AR-3a and JBL models of the day. When I pulled the 6s out of storage about 6 years ago, I discovered that the crossover had failed in one speaker. When I went into the box to repair the crossover, I found that the crossover components were encased in resin and sealed into the box. I gave up and donated the pair of 6s to the Goodwill. Contrary to commentary here, I would consider the high end of the 2-way KLH 6 to be sonically inferior to most major speakers of the late 1960s and thereafter because the driver was tasked to cover a wider frequency range than it could handle. By comparison, the same driver, used as the mid-range driver in the 3-way KLH 5 model, performs well. You don't see the KLH 5 around, probably because its price probably produced 1 sale for every 20 KHL 6 sales.
Randall Stewart Recapping the crossover on my 6’s was one of the best decisions I ever made. To my ears, they sound spectacular. And I can’t compare them to speakers I’ve never owned or heard.
I think the acronym that you were trying to think of for BOSE is Before Owning Stereo Equipment! LOL!... The majority of BOSE stuff, especially the smaller sub-sat systems, are "muddy", slightly "boomy", and have that notorious "hole" in their midbass because of the tiny satellites not being able to reproduce anything below like 200-300 Hz... Or above anything over about 12KHz... However, I did sort of appreciate their larger bookshelf and floorstanding models, such as the 301, 501, 701, and 901, (IF used with the active equalizer anyway), those models could sound decent IF set up and placed properly in a room... But I won't go on any further about BOSE, because there's MUCH better sounding and quality brands out there to be had used!
I had a friend that had two pair of the 901s driven with 2 Carver integrated amps hooked to a Quadraphonic adapter back in the 70's I still think that was the best I'd ever heard Pink Floyd. He also had a pair of 18" Altec Subwoofers that I helped to design and build powered by homemade 160w cllass A tube amps with an electronic low pass crossover.
I owned a set. They are loud and clear. They have nothing resembling staging or imaging. They are big, awkward, and bulky. The 901’s are nothing to lust over. And the “direct reflecting” gimmick gets old, very fast.
ArthurJS123 I only mentioned it because you said the JBL was your most efficient speaker which it is not. Just trying to keep the statements true. I'm well aware the sensitivity of a speaker has nothing to do with the audio quality. Cheers.
i have to agree with the statement on your jbl northridge set. mine sound amazing. all 5 of them. all were untested at goodwill. all were in mint condition except for yes, i had to do a bit of a sharpie touchup lol. i was working for GW at the time. i saw these i said, price them to me right ill take em untested. surrounds were magnificant, and the push test was perfect as well. 2 years later theyre still going strong
What i got was for hte mains, HLS615 (jbl northridge) and HLS415 ( jbl northridge) and an EC25 ( northridge) all of these were in near mint condition overall. all of this plus a powered polk subwoofer, 2 okyo receivers, and a free yamaha, and a purchased one, 2 cassette decks and a vintage albeit non working sony cd player. purchased all for 35 untested. all but the cd player works great
great video Arthur, I love searching for audio bargains, I've accumulated a vast collection of speakers and amplifiers , thinking of making a youtube video to share my huge speaker wall , recently got b&o m70 4way speakers for £20 , need a slight refurbishment, thanks for sharing your collection.
ArthurJS123 , it's great to see people who are into the same things as me , makes me feel normal, generally when people see my collection they swear and call me crazy , you've got a problem, but I don't care it makes me happy .
you don't have to worry so much about being dinged for playing music anymore because TH-cam now pays royalties. Just check out Michael Fremer's TH-cam channel. Never a ding!

ArthurJS123 you have some amazing speakers..I have scored to in the past but 2017 has been next to none...with these TV shows like american pickers storage wars..people are starting to realize the value in every thing..so they would rather keep or sell there stuff rather than donate to thrift stores. ..
Just because it’s old or vintage, doesn’t mean it’s worth a million dollars, or is even wanted by the general public. My local thrift stores continue to receive great stuff regularly. The key to this is to keep looking, and remain patient.
