A pair of Beovox P45 are for sale in a Florida thrift shop. For the shape they appear to be in, the $85 price seems high. However, if someone needs a woofer or other part, perhaps it might be worth it for me to go pick them up and start parting them out. Post if there's any interest.
The pair have been for sale for at least two weeks, so I don't think there's any rush. Price has been reduced at least once.
And no, I don't want them for myself, so don't tell me to go grab them for that!

These are good sounding speakers, and easy to restore, beware of magnets coming loose though. look here
Rich as always helpful
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
I may have an interest in parts!
I have a locked magnet in a pair!
If the pair are still for sale on Saturday, I will go pick them up. Once I have them home, I'll make the decision whether the pair should be saved as a set or parted out. Sound like a plan?
Rich:Sound like a plan?
Well ... back at 'ya!
Truth be told -as I downsize Il Collezione, you are welcome to mine for parts if you need them.
I have stuff stuffed between three addresses right now and I have no room!
Minimalism, here I come!
Relisted again, but not reduced. Looking like a short road trip Saturday...
ɓʋɾɑɳɫɘɮ: Minimalism, here I come!
That's kind of sad.
Can't think of any parts I need at the mo'.

If you go there on Sunday, bid them USD 50.00, if they are playing OK, with frozen magnets USD 30.00.
If you get them for one of these prices, I take them and pay for packing and shipping to McAllen.
If not, and they keep wanting the USD 80.00, you and I split the cost, if you agree, you keep them stored until we decide what to do with them, I hate to see nice speakers like this, going to people who do not know to give them TLC.
@ Jeff, if you want, I can try to fix your driver(s) with the frozen magnet, ship it to McAllen (new address, not the one you shipped to before), it will take time, but will eventually be done. To do it I will need to change the surround and dust cap. give me a mail if wanted.
Update: was unable to get over to the coast as the FS had other plans for me. Will look to try to get over there on the 27th as this coming weekend is out as well.
Rich:Another update: Just called and they're still available. Heading out shortly to pick them up.
