    That's the tidiest pair I've seen for years. They look stunning!

    The cone surrounds are in one piece, but showing slight signs of age (yellowing/bubbling). You can extend their life by doping them. Use Aleene's Original Tacky Glue. That's what I did mine with and it came out perfect. It leaves a very slightly tacky surface, just as the original coating did. It's water soluble, but DON'T drip any on the cones.

    Once you tune your ears into what these can do you'll love them.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    By the way. If it hasn't already been done, a favourite mod, is to fit banana sockets instead of the annoying small cable grip terminals.

    They look fantastic. How can your wife possibly object? They fit into the room like pieces of furniture.
