Olly398-
Word. My Bro-in-Laws Ruarks (Accolade I think) have perished surrounds.
-
Seem to sound absolutely fine, guy has filled the bottoms with sand which helps them apparently.
Some issues though, as expected at that price.
1 - loose metal fillings stuck to the outer edges of the silk tweeter dome, could just be junk stored nearby that has been attracted to the magnet?
2 - one of the binding posts is snapped, doesn't look that easy to replace.
3 - Previous owner decided to paint them black. Hoping can strip and get back to the veneer then stain them a lighter colour.But they sound fine, 'dry and succulent' I read in a review somewhere, probably about the best description. Foams feel fine, not collapsed and sticky (had high end car speakers go like that) but rebound OK and not crumbling.

thought so long as they work as they should then I can't loose right? If I don't like I can sell them on and be no worse off.
Fully expect them to destroy the relationship we have with our neighbors though.
