Undoubtedly. It's fourteen more than I have. :)

24 more than needed

Technics Su 8080 £75 (or add £17 for delivery) - seem to get good reviews.

You need to:

Reinforce the cabs internally - anywhere you can feel cabinet talk when they're playing put a strut in. And chuck away the fiberglass wadding.
Solder all push connector connections, rear terminals, speaker and crossover.
Dampen the metal port tube so it doesn't ring anymore - I used bike inner tube.
Attend to any driver issues.

Do all this and they're twice the speaker.

Lent to my parents, I still often hear the pair I did. They replaced Bariks in their system, the Bariks now in the conservatory wringing out the wee wee. Hung off the end of a good amp these are outstanding speakers.

Well, these came in cheap enough...about what one of the drivers is worth. Hope someone from on here was the lucky winner, not someone who's just going to part them out...

My old Quad 405 power amp is currently at a bargain price on eBay:

If you're interested in audio recording and editing, I've also put my trusty old E-MU 404 USB interface up for sale - another bargain right now. Works very nicely as a DAC by the way:
