Those look in decent condition for a seventies speaker. The Devons are liked by many. They use the respected HPD 315A driver, as is also used in the Mk.I Cheviot. They are a proper dual concentric monitor driver, based on the Monitor Gold. The crossovers would no doubt benefit from a service by Paul (RFC), unless they have been looked at recently.

Thanks Geoff.. I will give them some thought...

Any idea what they are really worth ?

At the moment, I guess asking prices can be up to maybe £750, with a realistic selling price of perhaps £500 to £550 depending on condition. They tend to fetch about 15/20% or so less than the bigger Cheviot.

Thanks for the info Geoff, much appreciated... :)

I bought a pair about 4 years ago, had new foam surrounds fitted, cabinets were very tatty, one completely split along one joint.

Great drive units, good sound for compact size, however the units will benefit having a larger cabinet.

Think I got a good deal at £400.

Have repaired the split cabinet, but cabinets need refinishing, possibly re-veneering.

Great thanks Alex.. ;)

aren't these kens old 66's ?

Big, active JBL Array. Very tempting

Tempting if you've got the money it's likely to go for. Don't reckon it'll be cheap. Should sound interesting though.
